One of the more mysterious aspects of the annual State of the Union address is the role of the designated survivor.
Each year, someone in the presidential line of succession is chosen not to attend the speech inside the Capitol building in case of a catastrophic event.That person has yet to be revealed for 2023, but last year's designated survivor was Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, who watched the speech in a remote location far from the Capitol dome.
Congress itself also designates members of the House and Senate from each party to play a designated survivor role in order to keep the legislature alive in the case of a catastrophic event. Some prominent previous designated survivors have included former Gov. Andrew Cuomo , former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, former Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack, former Sen. Orrin Hatch , and former Gov. Rick Perry .
