Democratic governors announced they would boycott a White House dinner scheduled during the National Governors Association's annual gathering, according to Time, after reports indicated President Donald Trump planned to exclude certain governors from the event. The Democratic Governors Association (DGA) framed the move as a show of unity, citing a break from the event's long-standing bipartisan tradition.
The DGA stated, "If the reports are true, that not all Governors are invited to these events, which have historically been productive and bipartisan opportunities for collaboration, we will not be attending the White House dinner this year." The organization emphasized that Democratic governors "remain united and will never stop fighting to protect and make life better for people."
