Hey, all --

On Tuesday, President Obama will deliver his fifth State of the Union address from the Capitol. He's taking the lead on his own remarks, but as his chief speechwriter, I've been spending the week helping him craft what he wants to say.

 

Today I took over the White House's Instagram account to give you a look inside the State of the Union process.

 

Take a look at some of today's photos:

 

 Several other folks here are going to be giving you updates on preparations this week, too -- so stay tuned.

 

Thanks,

 

Cody

Hello, everyone --

 

In just one week, President Obama will head to the Capitol to lay out his plan for the upcoming year of action, and what we need to do so that every working American can succeed.

 

It will be the President's fifth State of the Union address since taking office -- part of a tradition that dates back to our Founding Fathers.

 

Now, I've attended dozens of these events, and it's a big moment for the country.

 

White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough sat down to give you a look at this tradition. Watch the video, then RSVP to watch next Tuesday.

 

This year, there will be more opportunities than ever for you to take part in the State of the Union: brand new ways to interact with the speech on the night of the address and during the days that follow it, and a glimpse beforehand of interesting behind-the-scenes content.

 

Over the next week, stay tuned for updates on what's going on around the White House. It will be quite a week, and I want you to take part in it.

 

Be part of the tradition. RSVP now.

 

Thanks,

 

Vice President Joe Biden
