Obama reschedules energy meeting with senators for Tuesday

President Barack Obama will meet with a bipartisan group of senators on Tuesday on energy and climate change legislation.

Obama rescheduled the meeting that had been set for last Wednesday at the White House but had to be canceled in the wake of the controversy sparked by Gen. Stanley McChrystal.

Obama "will meet with a bipartisan group of senators to discuss the process for passing comprehensive energy and climate legislation this year," according to White House guidance.

Senate Democrats had an opportunity to huddle on Thursday to discuss their own strategy on energy this year, in a meeting some lawmakers described as the best caucus meeting in quite some time.
