Chicago Mayor-elect Lori Lightfoot to meet with Ivanka Trump, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi during trip to Washington

hicago Mayor-elect Lori Lightfoot is in Washington for meetings with national lawmakers this week.

Lightfoot was scheduled to meet Tuesday with Ivanka Trump, President Donald Trump's daughter, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, among others.

The incoming mayor is not expected to meet with the president during her trip to the nation’s capital. Both the president and his daughter, however, did call Lightfoot after she won the April 2 runoff election.

Since winning the Chicago mayor’s race over Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle last month, Lightfoot and her transition team have been gearing up to take office later this month.

In the days after her victory, Lightfoot headed down to the Illinois Capitol in Springfield, where she met with Gov. J.B. Pritzker, legislative leaders and addressed both the state House and Senate.

She’ll be sworn in as Chicago’s 56th mayor on May 20.
