The U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 3 states in part, "[The President] shall from time to time give to the Congress Information on the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient..." Traditionally, the President does so once per year, and since about 100 years ago, he does so in person in the form of a speech (The State of the Union Address).
