For additional opportunities to engage with senior administration officials post-State of the Union, you can tweet specific policy questions @WHChat (see below for office hours) or tweet your thoughts to Director of the Office of Public Engagement @JonCarson44. The OPE will post some of your responses on its blog in the coming days. Just another way to get involved in our digital democracy.
