Governors won’t hold Trump meeting after White House only invited Republicans
February 10, 2026
The National Governors Association has decided not to hold a formal meeting with President Donald Trump. This decision comes after the White House planned to invite only Republican governors to the event. Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt, a Republican, shared this in a letter to fellow governors on Monday. The NGA’s mission is to represent all 55 governors, so the association will no longer facilitate the event. The NGA is scheduled to meet in Washington from February 19th to 21st. Representatives for Stitt, the White House, and the NGA didn’t immediately comment on the letter.
