Steve Scalise won't attend White House meeting with congressional leaders

http://www.nola.com/politics/index.ssf/2014/11/steve_scalise_wont_attend_whit.html

Scalise spokeswoman Moira Bagley Smith said Scalise, just recently re-elected Tuesday with nearly 78 percent of the vote, has a schedule conflict. She didn't elaborate.
