JEFFRIES, SCHUMER STATEMENT ON TRUMP AGREEING TO DEMAND FOR A WHITE HOUSE MEETING

Today, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer released the following joint statement:

After weeks of Republican stonewalling in Congress, President Trump has agreed to meet this week in the Oval Office. In the meeting, we will emphasize the importance of addressing rising costs, including the Republican healthcare crisis. It’s past time to meet and work to avoid a Republican-caused shutdown.
