WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democratic U.S. Senator John Fetterman said on Thursday he had accepted an invitation to meet with Donald Trump, and CBS News reported that the meeting would take place at the Republican president-elect's Florida residence.
"President Trump invited me to meet, and I accepted. I’m the Senator for all Pennsylvanians— not just Democrats in Pennsylvania," Fetterman said in a statement.
CBS first reported the planned meeting. The network said it would be the first known meeting between a sitting Democratic senator and Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate since his Nov. 5 election win.
