The White House Correspondents' Association Board said Sunday it will continue to support the briefing room being open to all reporters who request access.

In a statement released Sunday afternoon, WHCA President Jeff Mason said he is meeting with incoming press secretary Sean Spicer on behalf of the organization's members to "try to get more clarity on exactly what" the Trump administration is suggesting regarding media access to the White House.

"The briefing room is open now to all reporters who request access. We support that and always will. The WHCA will fight to keep the briefing room and West Wing access to senior administration officials open," he said in the statement.

"We object strenuously to any move that would shield the president and his advisers from the scrutiny of an on-site White House press corps."

"There has been no decision," said Spicer on Sunday, adding "there has been some discussion about how to do it."

Spicer said there had been so much interest in covering the president-elect and raised questions about whether there would be enough room for all of the reporters looking to report on Trump's presidency.
