After an extraordinarily busy first 100 days, Joe Biden is not expected to let up in his his first address as president to a Joint Session of Congress on Wednesday.
He’s expected to present his American Families Plan, a $1 trillion proposal that aims to provide free preschool for all 3- and 4-year-old children, bolster health care, education and other core aspects of the average American household. Along with his American Jobs Plan, it represents a $4 trillion infrastructure proposal from Biden.
The president plans to pay with it through a corporate tax hike and via increased taxes on the wealthiest 1% of Americans, including a near doubling of the capital gains rate on incomes above $1 million.
Below is a rundown of how to watch Biden’s United States Capitol address on TV and online.
Deadline will have the livestream right here — see below — starting at 9 p.m. Et/6 p.m. Pt.

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany was grilled Friday about a lingering question of its coronavirus response: Why didn’t it refill the national stockpile of medical supplies in the three years since President Donald Trump has been in office?
After McEnany repeated Trump’s frequent claim — that his predecessor Barack Obama left the “cupboards” bare of the strategic supply needed to fight a pandemic — she was then asked why the president didn’t act to refill it in the time he’s been in office.

McEnany said Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar told her that “when we got to the federal government we were on the brink,...
