RALEIGH, (SGRToday.com) - As President Obama prepares to address the nation in his final State of the Union speech, the White House is rolling out a preview.

In a posting on the White House website, there is a list of guests who will be seated with the First Lady. An empty chair will be reserved for the victims of gun violence, according to the site.

 Last week, the President took a series of commonsense steps to help reduce gun violence in America and make our communities safer.

"We leave one seat empty in the First Lady’s State of the Union Guest Box for the victims of gun violence who no longer have a voice – because they need the rest of us to speak for them. To tell their stories. To honor their memory. To support the Americans whose lives have been forever changed by the terrible ripple effect of gun violence – survivors who’ve had to learn to live with a disability, or without the love of their life. To remind every single one of our representatives that it’s their responsibility to do something about this."
