Top Lawmakers Will Meet Trump at White House

September 27, 2025 · 8:52 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“The top four congressional leaders will meet with President Donald Trump at the White House on Monday, as Washington works to avoid a looming government shutdown,” CNN reports.

NBC News: “The development comes after Trump abruptly canceled a planned meeting with Democratic leaders on Thursday, at the urging of Johnson and Thune. The president at the time called Democratic demands ‘unserious and ridiculous.’”

“Since then, Jeffries and Schumer have been trading very public barbs with Trump over the looming government shutdown and Democrats’ demands to attach health care policies to the temporary funding bill.”
