"Less than one year has passed since I first stood at this podium, in this majestic chamber, to speak on behalf of the American People—and to address their concerns, their hopes, and their dreams. That night, our new Administration had already taken swift action. A new tide of optimism was already sweeping across our land," Trump said.

"Each day since, we have gone forward with a clear vision and a righteous mission—to make America great again for all Americans," he said. "In America, we know that faith and family, not government and bureaucracy, are the center of the American life. Our motto is "in God we trust."

Trump also spoke on the continuing need to honor America's military veterans.

"I will not stop until our veterans are properly taken care of, which has been my promise to them from the very beginning of this great journey," he said.

The president said one of his priorities for the year is to reduce the price of prescription drugs.

"In many other countries, these drugs cost far less than what we pay in the United States. That is why I have directed my Administration to make fixing the injustice of high drug prices one of our top priorities. Prices will come down," he promised.

Trump also said it's time to rebuild our crumbling infrastructure.

"America is a nation of builders. We built the Empire State Building in just 1 year—is it not a disgrace that it can now take 10 years just to get a permit approved for a simple road?" he asked. "I am asking both parties to come together to give us the safe, fast, reliable, and modern infrastructure our economy needs and our people deserve."

"Tonight, I am calling on the Congress to produce a bill that generates at least $1.5 trillion for the new infrastructure investment we need," the president said. "We will build gleaming new roads, bridges, highways, railways, and waterways across our land. And we will do it with American heart, American hands, and American grit."

"I am extending an open hand to work with members of both parties—Democrats and Republicans—to protect our citizens of every background, color, religion, and creed. My duty and the sacred duty of every elected official in this chamber is to defend Americans—to protect their safety, their families, their communities, and their right to the American Dream. Because Americans are dreamers too," he noted.

"As long as we are proud of who we are, and what we are fighting for, there is nothing we cannot achieve. As long as we have confidence in our values, faith in our citizens, and trust in our God, we will not fail. Our families will thrive," Trump continued.

"Our people will prosper. And our Nation will forever be safe and strong and proud and mighty and free," he said. "Thank you and God Bless America."
