June 24 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump will meet with Republican senators Wednesday at a luncheon designed to heal differences among party members.
Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., invited the president to the lunch, which he hosts weekly on Capitol Hill. He said he was talking to the president on the phone Friday about several issues when he invited Trump to come to the meeting.
"I just bring people to lunch and create a conversation, and I think there's a greater chance something good will happen," Scott told The New York Times.
In a memo to his colleagues, Scott said he hopes the meeting will include "robust conversations" about "how we should spend our time between now and the November elections," USA Today reported.
