WASHINGTON DC — Jennie Taylor, the widow of Maj. Brent Taylor, will attend the State of the Union address as a guest of Utah Rep. Rob Bishop.

Rep. Bishop issued a press release Thursday, saying Taylor will be his guest at the 2019 State of the Union Address, which is scheduled for February 5.

Bishop will also host a reception honoring Mrs. Taylor and her fallen husband. That reception is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. ET on February 6 at the Longworth House Office Building, Room 1334.
