Biden yet to respond to proposed meeting with Gold Star families, Issa says
Fox News
Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., said he still hasn't heard from the White House about a proposed meeting between President Biden and Afghanistan Gold Star families.
The families were in Washington last week when Issa, a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, held a congressional forum, and the families reported feeling misled and betrayed by their own government.

"After spending many meaningful days with them, I write to facilitate an opportunity for you to speak with them in person so you can finally take the time to listen and hear what they have to say," Issa wrote in an Aug. 10 letter to Biden, which was provided to Fox News Digital on Wednesday. "To date, that simply has yet to happen."
