As President Donald Trump delivers his State of the Union on Tuesday, Feb. 24, more than 80 Democrats from both the House of Representatives and the Senate have announced they will be boycotting tonight's speech.

At least 30 representatives and senators will skip the address to attend the "People’s State of the Union" hosted by MeidasTouch, MoveOn Civic Action and other community organizing groups.

Some of the high-profile Democrats in attendance will be Massachusetts Sen. Ed Markey, as well as Arizona Sen. Ruben Gallego.
