House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) will attend a holiday reception at the White House Monday evening, reports ABC News.
With partisan debate over the “fiscal cliff” becoming more acrimonious by the day, President Obama will play host tonight to House Speaker John Boehner and members of Congress for the season’s first White House holiday reception.
Boehner’s visit, confirmed by his office, will be his second trip to the White House for face-time with Obama since the president won re-election last month. Both men have also spoken by phone twice over the past two weeks, with the most recent call described by aides as anything but cordial.
