"SNIP.........

The White House has excluded Sen. Bill Nelson (D-Fla.) from a meeting between President Trump and lawmakers from both parties about a legislative response to the high school shooting in his home state.

Nelson, who is up for reelection next year and may be challenged by Rick Scott, Florida’s Republican governor, was not in the White House list of invitees and was conspicuous in his absence.

Florida’s other senator, Republican Marco Rubio, did make the cut, as did a number of House members from Florida: GOP Reps. John Rutherford and Brian Mast and Democratic Reps. Ted Deutch and Stephanie Murphy.

Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), who is running for the Senate in her state, also was on the invitee list.
