Rep. Veronica Escobar, who represents that El Paso area, says that she declined an invitation from the White House to join Trump on his El Paso visit because he wouldn't take her call before the visit.

@RepEscobar
The White House invited me to join
@realDonaldTrump
during his visit to El Paso. My response was clear. I requested a phone call with him today in order to share what I have now heard from many constituents, including some who are victims of Saturday’s attack.

I declined the invitation because I refuse to be an accessory to his visit. I refuse to join without a dialogue about the pain his racist and hateful words & actions have caused our community and country.
