Governor-elect Tony Evers is among those newly-elected officials visiting the White House today.
President Donald Trump has extended an invitation to governors-elect and other newly-elected officials from both parties. White House Director of Intergovernmental Affairs, Doug Hoelscher, says they’ll be discussing “shared priorities” including workforce investment, prison reform, and combating the opioid epidemic. The guests will also meet with Cabinet members as part of a broader White House outreach effort to local officials.
The White House says the goal of the get-together is “to open lines of communication and begin a dialogue.”
