U.S. President Barack Obama used his annual State of the Union address Tuesday to urge that Congress pass a new authorization of force against Islamic State militants.
Appearing before the new Republican-controlled Congress, Mr. Obama said a U.S.-led coalition in Iraq and Syria is stopping Islamic State from advancing. But he said the fight against the group will take focus and time.
On Iran, the president warned he will veto any bill from Congress that imposes new sanctions. Mr. Obama said there are no guarantees that Iran's negotiations with the U.S. and five other world powers will succeed in producing an agreement on its nuclear program, but that there is "a chance." He warned that passing new sanctions before the talks are completed "will all but guarantee that diplomacy fails."
He said the American people expect their government "to only go to war as a last resort," and that he intends to stay true to that.
President Obama's seventh State of the Union speech came as public opinion surveys show him riding a new wave of popularity. That is thanks to the growing U.S. economy -- the subject of much of his speech Tuesday night. But the president's economic proposals -- including higher taxes on the wealthiest Americans to help the middle class -- are likely to face stiff opposition in the new Republican-dominated Congress.
In the GOP response, Iowa U.S. Senator Joni Ernst said the new Congress controlled by her party will have a renewed focus on addressing the concerns of Americans, with initiatives targeting job creation and repealing President Barack Obama's landmark health care law.

Cuba was another topic the president raised. He said normalizing diplomatic relations with the island nation -- a move he announced last month -- marks the end of a policy "that was long past its expiration date." He called on Congress to begin work this year on ending the nation's five-decade embargo against the communist nation.
But not all lawmakers support the president's decision, including Republican Senator Marco Rubio, a Cuban American from Florida, who was shown not clapping when Mr. Obama brought up Cuba.
The dramatic shift in policy followed Cuba's release in December of American hostage Alan Gross. Seated with first lady Michelle Obama, Gross was one of the president's guests for the Tuesday night speech. Mr. Obama addressed him directly, saying "Welcome home, Alan. We're glad you're here."
Another issue that has been at the top of the president's agenda recently
is cybersecurity. In his State of the Union speech, Mr. Obama said the U.S. must combat cyber attacks in the same way it confronts terrorism.
He urged Congress to pass legislation to combat the cyber threat, saying that not acting will leave the U.S. and its economy vulnerable. He said no foreign nation or hacker "should be able to shut down our networks, steal our trade secrets, or invade the privacy of American families," especially children.
President Obama has been pressing Congress for legislation to make it easier for the government and private companies to share information.
The cybersecurity push comes in the wake of the November 24 hacking of Sony Pictures Entertainment -- an attack U.S. investigators traced to North Korea. Just last week, hackers claiming loyalty to Islamic State militants attacked social media accounts of the U.S. Central Command, which oversees U.S.-led airstrikes on the Islamic State group.
On Russia and the dispute over Ukraine, President Obama said the United States is standing strong and united with its allies, while Russia is isolated with its economy in tatters. He said opposing Russian aggression and supporting Ukrainian democracy upholds the principle that bigger nations cannot bully the small.
Turning to the Asia-Pacific region, Mr. Obama said the U.S. is modernizing alliances while making sure other nations play by the rules in trade and resolving maritime disputes.
On Ebola, the president said he could not be prouder of the American troops, doctors, nurses and scientists who are saving countless lives and stopping the spread of the disease. But he said the job is not yet done. He said the world needs to use the lesson of Ebola to build a more effective effort to prevent future pandemics. He said this includes investing in smart development and wiping out extreme poverty.
And on climate change -- the challenge he said poses the greatest threat to future generations -- Mr. Obama said he will not let Congress reverse the nation's progress. He said the best scientists say that if officials do not act forcefully, the world will continue to see "rising oceans, longer, hotter heat waves, dangerous droughts and floods, and massive disruptions that can trigger greater migration, conflict and hunger around the globe."
A new poll issued jointly by the Washington Post and ABC News shows Mr. Obama with a 50 percent approval rating, a nine point increase since December.
