Rep. Peter A. DeFazio, D-Ore., praised President Barack Obama’s final State of the Union for addressing health care and the economy, but was disappointed Obama did not discuss in detail the new Pacific trade deal. “The president’s number one priority, number two priority and number three priority on Capitol Hill are pushing yet another failed trade agreement,” DeFazio said.
