I believe you are referring to the "State of the Union Address." But presidents are always trying to influence congress, and they often give speeches and policy addresses about the priorities they would like to see turned into laws.

Can congress propose and pass legislation?
That is often the way it works. However, there is no special power to propose legislation: any person can propose legislation. Often, the Executive branch will propose legislation, or a special interest group. Even a single citizen has the right to propose legislation, but the discussion, debate, and vote on the passage of the bill is a power that only Congress has.It is interesting to re-iterate: the President and Executive branch is under no obligation to make a proposal for the agenda. It is just a tradition as presidents often have many campaign promises that they intend to fulfill. Very ironic indeed, as the president has no real authority to pass any laws whatsoever.
