-Submit Your Questions for Senior Administration Officials During the
State of the Union Address

 

This Tuesday, January 24, President Obama will present his 2012 State of
the Union (SOTU) Address
<http://capwiz.com/ncl/utr/1/HYTWRGISAP/NKMKRGIULC/7830961811> . The
National Coalition for Literacy (NCL
<http://capwiz.com/ncl/utr/1/HYTWRGISAP/BTWXRGIULD/7830961811> ) will be
at the White House tweeting live during the SOTU and participating in an
interactive, open questions event with senior administration officials
afterwards. We'll have the chance to ask questions about the speech and
share questions from our followers on Facebook
<http://capwiz.com/ncl/utr/1/HYTWRGISAP/CUSLRGIULE/7830961811>  and 
Twitter <http://capwiz.com/ncl/utr/1/HYTWRGISAP/AIHNRGIULF/7830961811> .

 

This is a unique opportunity for adult education advocates to engage
with the White House and receive in-depth information on the policies
and recommendations put forth by President Obama in his speech. The
event will be livestreamed
<http://capwiz.com/ncl/utr/1/HYTWRGISAP/DCTQRGIULG/7830961811>  widely
online and later available for replay at whitehouse.gov.
