US President Donald Trump today used his first State of the Union address to unveil his second-year agenda for bi-partisanship on issues like immigration while pledging to tackle the ISIS and a nuclear-armed North Korea. <br/><br/>During his 80-minute prime time address, Trump laid out a four-pillar immigration plan, one of the major debates that loomed over his first year in office, and sought the backing of the Congress for a merit-based immigration system that admits skilled people, a proposal that could benefit technology professionals from countries like India. <br/><br/>He also outlined a plan that would allow up to 1.8 million undocumented immigrants to remain in the country while funding a border wall with Mexico, ending the visa lottery system and reforming family immigration rules. <br/><br/>In one of the longest-running State of the Union speeches in US history, the 71-year-old businessman-turned politician heralded the economic successes of his administration, including a soaring stock market and low unemployment. <br/><br/>Trump appealed to the Democrats and Republicans to look past deep national divisions in order to do good by the American people. <br/><br/>In his speech, laced with American stories of triumph and tragedy, Trump said it was not enough to come together only in times of tragedy. <br/><br/>He called on lawmakers to approve a infrastructure package worth 1.5 trillion US Dollars and touted his work on health care. He said, his administration has slashed the business tax rate from 35 per cent to 21 per cent, so American companies can compete and win against anyone in the world.<br/><br/>President Trump warned that North Korea's reckless pursuit of nuclear missile could threaten American cities and asserted that he will not repeat the mistakes of past administrations that got the US into dangerous position. <br/><br/>He said he was also asking the Congress to ensure that, in the fight against ISIS and al-Qaida, the US should have all necessary power to detain terrorists – wherever we chase them down.
