Former President Barack Obama will attend a meet-and-greet with all the freshmen members of the 116th Congress on Monday, according to an invite obtained by Politico.
The reception will be hosted by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and only the 60-plus new members of Congress will be invited. The event will be held at the home of Esther Coopersmith, the former representative to the United Nations under President Jimmy Carter’s administration.
Some of the new members of Congress have already spent plenty of time with the former President. Reps. Tom Malinowski (D-NJ), Andy Kim (D-NJ) and Lauren Underwood (D-IL) all worked in various roles in his administration.
