President Barack Obama will meet with Maryland Gov.-elect Larry Hogan on Friday to discuss the ways that the administration can partner with states on economic issues, the White House said Tuesday.
The White House meeting will also include the newly elected governors of Alaska, Illinois, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and Texas. Vice President Joe Biden will also attend.
Hogan is the first Republican elected to lead the state since Robert L. Ehrlcih Jr. won the governor's race in 2002.
