Yes, the president is required to make a report to Congress, "from time to time". It has become customary for the president to do so in a speech once a year.
The president is required to give an annual State of the Union address to Congress, and presidents frequently use this speech as an opportunity to propose a legislative agenda for Congress.
State of the Union address, before a joint session of the United States Congress.
The meeting is called a joint session of Congress. The speech made by the President is called his state of the union address. The Constitution requires that the President make such a report from time to time. It does not have to be an annual report and it does not have to be a speech. Past presidents have made written reports and sent them to Congress to read.
That is when the president chooses to give it but I think he wants to welcome the new Congress and hopefully get them on his side. The speech used to be given in December to sum up the year and look toward next year.
no only the new president gives a inaugaral speech.
The president will give a speech is active.The speech will be given by the president is passive.The passive voice is formed with a form of "to be" (be, in this case) and a past participle (given).

Woodrow Wilson gave his speech to the American Congress.
The President is required to prepare and give such a speech. Article II Section 3 of the US Constitution provides that it must be presented to Congress. It is given annually on the anniversary of the president's inaugoration.
It has been known as The State of the Union Address since the 1940s; before then it was called "the President's Annual Message to Congress". It does not need to be in the form of a speech, and it does not need to be delivered every year. 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..." Throughout the 19th century the Presidents sent the State of the Union to Congress in writing, and it was read by the clerk. Woodrow Wilson revived the practice of delivering the State of the Union orally.
