Newspaper Page Text7A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • TUESDAY, JANUARY 30, 2018 STATE OF THE UNION Trump puts Twitter aside as he prepares for big speech By JULIE PACE Associated Press WASHINGTON — Pres- ident Donald Trump will her- ald a robust economy and push for bipartisan congressio- nal action on immigration in Tuesday’s State of the Union address, as he seeks to rally a deeply divided nation and boost his own sagging standing with Americans. The speech marks the cere- monial kickoff of Trump’s sec- ond year in office and is tradi- tionally a president’s biggest platform to speak to the nation. However, Trump has redefined presidential communications with his high-octane, filter-free Twitter account and there’s no guarantee that the carefully crafted speech will resonate beyond his next tweet. Trump was quiet Tues- day on Twitter, and the White House sought to focus atten- tion on his big speech to Con- gress and millions of Ameri- cans watching at home. White House officials are hopeful the president can use the prime-time address to take Jim Lo Scalzo President Donald Trump addresses a joint session of Congress on Capitol Hill in February 2017, as Vice Pres- ident Mike Pence and House Speaker Paul Ryan applaud. credit for a soaring economy. Though the trajectory of lower unemployment and higher growth began under his prede- cessor, Trump argues that the tax overhaul he signed into law late last year has boosted busi- ness confidence and will lead companies to reinvest in the United States. Considering the strength of the economy, Trump will step before lawmakers Tues- day night in a remarkably weak position. His approval rat- ing has hovered in the 30s for much of his presidency and at the close of 2017, just 3 in 10 Americans said the United States was heading in the right direction, according to a poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. In the same survey, 67 percent of Americans said the country was more divided because of Trump. It’s unlikely Trump will be able to rely on a robust legis- lative agenda to reverse those numbers in 2018. Congress has struggled with the basic func- tion of funding the government, prompting a brief government shutdown earlier this month that was resolved only with a short-term fix that pushed the spending deadline to Feb. 8. Against the backdrop of the spending fight, Republicans and Democrats are also wres- tling with the future of some 700,000 young immigrants liv- ing in the United States ille- gally. Trump has vowed to pro- tect the so-called Dreamers from deportation, but is also calling for changes to legal immigration that are controver- sial with both parties. “We’re going to get some- thing done, we hope bipar- tisan,” Trump told report- ers Monday, before giving his speech a practice run-through in the White House map room. “The Republicans really don’t have the votes to get it done in any other way. So it has to be bipartisan.” Oil spill: Wildlife has not been affected Continued from Page 1A “That does explain why we’re seeing product in the water,” Madjeska said. “It probably shifted once the river was able to make con- tact and come in through those holes and then exit with the tide.” The exact amount of oil discharged is still unknown, but the Coast Guard consid- ers the spill minor. Wildlife has not been affected. Tide cycles of up to 9 feet, inclement weather, crumbling concrete surrounding the tank and the risk of disrupting the containment boom have pre- sented challenges for crews hoping to excavate the tank. A crane barge was placed in the area Friday before work began Monday. Madjeska said crews hope to fully access the tank by the end of the week. Crews will then be able to determine how heavy it is and how, if possi- ble, to lift it from the pier — oil and all. Oil from the tank was likely used for boilers at the Union Fishermen’s Coopera- tive, which was located at the pier and closed down more than 70 years ago, Madjeska said. Since then, the pier has had a handful of owners, and knowledge of the tank likely was lost somewhere in the turnover. “Did people know years ago that this tank was there? Possibly. Maybe not,” hotel spokeswoman Donna Quinn said. “We wish it had been disclosed, but it wasn’t. We don’t know who knew or who didn’t know.” Quinn said the hotel is researching options for how to pay for the cleanup and equipment, which Madjeska estimates will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. The sheen has prompted questions about other piers in Astoria. Companies that moved out of the town, which once hosted a booming can- nery industry, left behind dilapidated docks. “This generated some excellent conversation among stakeholders and partners about canneries in general, but at this time there is no infor- mation of additional tanks,” Madjeska said. Large environmental and economic ramifications appear to have been avoided in this spill. “But I would say it’s a big event in a small city,” Coast Guard Capt. Wil- liam Timmons said.
