President Trump and the executive committee of the Congressional Black Caucus will meet on Wednesday, the White House confirmed. Press Secretary Sean Spicer told reporters at his daily briefing that Trump invited the lawmakers to “continue to have a dialogue -- sitting down with people, talking about the issues, talking about common ground.” The Congressional Black Caucus is made up of 49 black members of Congress, mostly Democrats, but Republican Rep. Mia Love of Utah is also a member. The other lawmakers, all Democrats, who are scheduled to attend are Reps. André Carson (Ind.), Karen Bass (Calif.), Gwen Moore (Wis.), Brenda Lawrence (Mich.) and Anthony G. Brown (Md.).
