After the Michigan speaker of the House sent a midinterview text saying that he had not confirmed whether he would accept the White House’s invitation for an “extraordinary” meeting between President Trump and top Republican lawmakers in the state, it was reported that Speaker Lee Chatfield would, in fact, be in attendance.

Asked by CNN’s Alisyn Camerota on Friday to confirm reporting that the lawmakers had accepted the invitation from Trump, Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson said, “I only know what’s been reported publicly, which is it appears the invitation was accepted and you know, I also know, though, that quite publicly, both the Senate majority leader and the speaker have stated they won’t obstruct the will of the voters and so we also see no indication that that’s going to change, either.”
