Annual Message to Congress (State of the Union)

President Truman delivered his annual message to a joint session of Congress outlining postwar domestic and foreign policy priorities and requesting legislative cooperation.

The address set the administration's early postwar agenda—framing economic reconversion, veterans' needs, and international responsibilities—and sought congressional support that would shape 1947 policy debates.
