This study examines Joe Biden's speech delivered during his visit to a
Steamfitters training facility in Virginia by using Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). This
research aims to analyze the substance of Biden's speech in the economic sector by
examining the text and sociocultural context, using qualitative research methodology by
applying Norman Fairclough's framework of critical discourse analysis. Fairclough's
Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) comprises three fundamental components: texts,
discourse practices, and sociocultural practices. By using this theory, it is clear that
Biden's diction includes specific word categorization through modality, repetition, and the
use of first-person singular pronouns to show his full authority and power and to criticize
Congressional Republicans. In addition, Biden's speech also served as a political speech
and strategic means to rally citizens' support in the United States.
