Rep. Paul Broun, who made headlines when he skipped the State of the Union address in January but tweeted about it, is planning a repeat performance Thursday.

President Barack Obama will talk about job creation before a joint session of Congress at 7 p.m., but Broun and several other Members won’t be part of the audience sitting in the House chamber, whether for political or personal reasons.

The Georgia Republican plans to watch the speech from his office, as he did for the president’s address in January, and host a live town hall via Twitter.

“He wants to be readily available to answer any questions they might have about the address, as well as be open to hearing his constituents’ thoughts and ideas for spurring job creation,” said Meredith Griffanti, Broun’s press secretary.

Rep. Joe Walsh announced last week that he would host a small-business jobs forum in his Illinois district instead of attending the speech. According to a news release from the Republican’s office, he will fly to his district after votes are finished Thursday to talk to “the real job creators about creating real jobs.”
