I believe it works for Secretary Perdue but I will check and get back to you shortly.
Ambassador Pruitt's folks- are you all having an advance team go down? Wanted to see and if so, perhaps we could coordinate a walk through on Thursday if the Barrs are okay with that.
Thank you.

Many thanks, Wanda. That is a kind offer, but no need for lunch.
Does 12-3 work for everyone?
