TOM KLUDT 6:28 PM EDT, MONDAY APRIL 22, 2013
President Barack Obama on Tuesday evening will host all female senators for dinner at the White House.
Shortly after word of the dinner emerged from the White House on Monday, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) took to Twitter to applaud Obama for hosting the women. Gillibrand proposed the idea late last year in an interview with ABC News.
Kirsten Gillibrand ✔ @SenGillibrand
