US Women’s Hockey Team Declines State of the Union Invite
The U.S. women’s hockey team, fresh off their gold medal victory at the 2026 Winter Olympics, was invited to President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address. However, the team declined the invitation, citing previously scheduled academic and professional commitments. Meanwhile, the U.S. men’s Olympic hockey team, also a gold medal winner, has accepted an invitation to the address, though their attendance is still subject to finalized scheduling and travel logistics.
