The White House is hosting an event Wednesday afternoon to honor Women’s History Month.
President Trump, who will give a speech at the event, will be joined by female members of Congress. He is expected to help announce the launch of a GOP Women’s Caucus spearheaded by Rep. Kat Cammack (R-Fla.), per an invitation obtained by Fox News.
“I am especially proud to acknowledge and celebrate the brilliant and talented female trailblazers in my Administration,” Trump wrote earlier this month in a statement. “They are leaders in business, experts in foreign and domestic policy, authorities in national security, great legal minds, as well as dedicated public servants who put the American people first. Together, we are working to honor the women in our history.”
The event also comes just over two months after the president signed a sweeping executive order recognizing only two sexes: male and female.
Trump’s remarks are scheduled to begin at 3 p.m. EDT.
