“We don’t have a national security strategy … Nor do we have his budget … Because of that we want to stop him from actually delivering the State of the Union.”

A Google search found articles that said that Johnson extended the invitation on Jan 6. So, yeah.

The parents of slain UGA jogger Laken Riley have declined an invitation to the State of the Union address Thursday in order to grieve their daughter, according to far-right Congressman Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA).

Collins, who represents Georgia’s 10th Congressional District of Athens, where the 22-year-old nursing student is alleged to have been murdered, said in an announcement to X on Wednesday that his office had sent an invite, “but understandably, they have chosen to stay home as they grieve the loss of their daughter.”

It is unclear whether Collins’ reputation for the wilder of side of politics was also at play in the decision to turn down the invite—he is currently facing criticism for his response to an antisemitic post on X that called a Washington Post reporter out for being Jewish.
He also very publicly supports Texas’ use of razor wire on the border and caused outrage last month after he suggested using “Pinochet Air” tactics against an undocumented migrant (referring to the brutal tactic known as “death flights” used famously by Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet, which saw dissidents and opposition figures thrown from a helicopter into the ocean or into the high peaks of the Andes). His post violated X’s rules, the platform said, but said it would remain public due to public interest.

On Thursday, Collins said he would honor Riley by keeping his guest seat vacant at the presidential address. The empty seat, he added, will also honor “all American victims of illegal alien crime.”
