“War places a heavy burden on our nation’s extraordinary military families, especially spouses like Amy Williams from Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and her two children — 6-year-old Elliana and 3-year-old Rowan,” Trump had said.
“Amy works full-time, and volunteers countless hours helping other military families,” Trump continued. “For the past seven months, she has done it all while her husband, Sgt. 1st Class Townsend Williams, is in Afghanistan on his fourth deployment to the Middle East,” the president said. “Amy’s kids have not seen their father’s face in many months. Amy, your family’s sacrifice makes it possible for all of our families to live in safety and peace — we thank you.”
Townsend Williams then moved quickly down the aisle to embrace his children and wife.

During his address, President Trump also pressed the joint session of Congress to pass a bill that would ban abortions in late pregnancy and drew attention to a 2-year-old girl who was born at 22 weeks gestation and was able to survive thanks to medical breakthroughs.
“Whether we are Republican, Democrat or independent, surely we must all agree that every human life is a sacred gift from God,” Trump said.
