Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton is expected to join a meeting that Donald Trump is holding on Monday in Washington.

A source close to Cotton, a first term Republican known for his hawkish foreign policy views, said that Cotton's attendance did not signal an outright endorsement, but rather that he was interested in hearing what the Republican frontrunner has to say.

Trump, who is speaking at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee conference later on Monday, is convening a meeting of lawmakers, lobbyists, and operatives. Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions, who has endorsed the mogul, is among those also expected to attend.

The Washington Post reports the meeting was set up by Trump campaign attorney Donald McGahn and will be at his law firm, Jones Day.
