Members of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) shared a selfie on Tuesday celebrating their first visit to the White House in four years.
Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) shared the selfie on Twitter with the caption The Congressional Black Caucus Fams first visit to the White House in four long years.
The last time the caucus visited the White House was in March 2017, when White House senior adviser Cedric Richmond who was then in the House and served as chair of the CBC pressed former President Trump to focus on issues that were important to African Americans.
The caucus turned down an invitation to meet with Trump again a few months later, saying that the former president wasnt acting on the caucus priorities.

Because they were never invited back by the Trump Admin, or because they knew it wasn't worth the trouble of going?
