Fox News: SCOOP: Trump Joins Launch of GOP Women's Caucus at White House

FIRST ON FOX: President Donald Trump was joined by female members of Congress at the White House on Wednesday for the launch of a Republican Women's Caucus.

The initiative is being led by Rep. Kat Cammack, R-Fla., according to an invitation first obtained by Fox News Digital via another source attending the event.

The caucus's goal will be to "champion GOP women members' legislative priorities," "support GOP women in a variety of endeavors on the national stage," and "push for representation in leadership positions," according to the invitation.

Its mission on leadership is particularly notable, considering the only woman leading a House committee in the 119th Congress is House Rules Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx, R-N.C. 

The White House had announced Trump would participate in a Women's History Month event but did not specify what it would entail.

Cammack's office did not respond to a request for comment earlier on Tuesday but said after the formal announcement was made, "It’s an honor to announce the launch of the Republican Women’s Caucus today at the White House with President Trump during Women’s History Month."

"American issues are women’s issues and this caucus solidifies the president and Republicans’ commitment to all Americans from all walks of life," Cammack said.

The invitation also encourages Republican lawmakers joining the caucus to send the group their top three legislative priorities.

During the event Trump also announced support for a Smithsonian Women's History Museum, the result of a bipartisan push led on the Republican side by Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, R-N.Y. 

"The Republican Party is the party of opportunity, security, and freedom—all things incredibly important to American women. President Trump recognizes our contributions and the contributions of the women who came before us and helped build our nation," Malliotakis told Fox News Digital in response to Trump's move.

"That’s why he authorized the Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum and today gave us his ‘100%’ support to move forward with building it on the National Mall."
