01:59 PM EDT, 08/31/2026 (MT Newswires) -- (Updates with White House comment in last paragraph.) President Donald Trump is expected to host executives of oil refining companies on Tuesday, Reuters reported Monday, citing people familiar with the plans. The companies received invitations last week that were light on details, and they were not told who else would attend, the report said. "President Trump is laser-focused on ensuring his successful energy dominance agenda translates into the most cost savings possible at the pump for consumers," White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers said in an email to MT Newswires. "As part of that commitment, the president will meet with industry leaders to collaborate on the best ways to increase refining capacity, further unleash American energy dominance across the entire supply chain, and bring down prices for the American people."
