u. s. senate this time that is not the case. the house of representatives controlled by opposition, republicans and so he has that backdrop. he also has the backdrop of poll numbers, which are among the lowest of his presidency. and so he makes a pitch to the american public for a nother term in office. in many cases, this is a defacto pitch, if you will, to the american public for another term in the white house. and so the u. s. president is not only going to be throughout the speech, highlighting the successes that he sees as the past 2 years, but also making the case for another. for now, as we watch these pictures, you've seen the members of the cabinet. they've been filing into the house of representatives. already we've seen the members of the house of representatives seated as well as the members of congress from the u. s. senate seated there is also you'll see on the left of your screen there. the members of the judiciary that the members of the supreme court, what we're waiting for now is the sergeant of arms to bring

u. s senate, along with barbara boxer. she is the longest tenured female senator and the longest serving congressional member from california, the pastor of san francisco's third baptist church, reverend amos brown, reflected on his friendship with senator feinstein, saying her support for the church has been a key in helping countless people. she supported program called back on track. program that we have operated now for 36 years. metering. and tutoring young people from this community who needed assistance in their academics. yes she's been a friend. brown says senator feinstein's support was critical in establishing a resettlement office in san francisco for african refugees and reaction to senator feinstein's decision is flooding social media from governor newsom to nancy pelosi , bart bay area council. even senator lindsey graham praises pouring in for her leadership service and accomplishments. former house speaker nancy pelosi has already endorsed congressman adam schiff from burbank for the senate seat. representa

u. s. senate in 1990 to 1 of her first accomplishments of federal ban on assault weapons. the 1994 landmark legislation was passed and lasted 10 years. feinstein advocating for its reinstatement ever since, along with other gun safety laws, the outgoing u. s senator turns 90 in june and in recent years began facing challenges from within the younger ranks of the democratic party. we were already starting to see candidates announce their bids. so katie porter and adam schiff and so i think that was in a sense of signal to senator feinstein that you know she needs to make a decision. former senator barbara boxer served alongside feinstein for many years. they were both elected in 1992 before becoming the first pair of female senators in any state. boxer was asked about the recent reports of feinstein having moments where she appeared to be suffering from memory loss. well those reports are very troubling and it's a short term memory loss, and it hits people. and what can i tell you about it? except that in the moment and she's talking to you, she's with you. and then there's

u. s senator from california. how do you think senator feinstein changed the landscape for future generations of women in politics. was she had a terrific , um, career and she just proved that you know, the fact that you're a woman shouldn't shouldn't change the way people view you. they you know, i've always said women are not better . we're equal. we deserve an equal chance, and i think through all of her accomplishments and all of her setbacks and losses, personal and otherwise. she showed that you could persevere and you could do so much good and she never gave up. you know, tough things that she had to do. we work together on the assault weapons ban. she was the leader and boy, i'll tell you, we all swallowed her direction. she'd say we got to get to 60 votes and joe biden was the head of the judiciary committee, and he was like the coach in the background and telling us we had to keep working. and i'd say, diane, you take the tall senators. i'll take the short ones. i'm barely five ft. to meet you. she was a
