White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt returns to the briefing room for her first official press briefing since maternity leave, offering fresh details on President Donald Trump's upcoming primetime address. Reporters are also expected to question her on key domestic and foreign policy issues facing the administration. Leavitt, who stepped away from regular briefings following the birth of her second child, is back at a pivotal moment for the White House as Trump's evening address draws nationwide attention. The briefing is expected to outline the administration's priorities and preview the president's message.

Leavitt is briefing reporters Thursday afternoon, when she will likely field questions about Iran and Trump’s primetime speech that evening.
