President Obama, now facing a Republican-run Senate and a bigger GOP majority in the House, will host a post-election news conference Wednesday afternoon, White House officials said.
Obama is scheduled to face reporters at 2:50 p.m.
Obama has pledged to work with both parties on middle class economic issues, including his calls for a minimum wage hike and student loan aide.
On Tuesday, Obama will likely be asked about his hopes for the lame-duck Congress and foreign policy challenges that include the rise of the Islamic State.
As he moves forward, Obama is expected to nominate a new attorney general. On Friday, he is scheduled to meet with leaders of the current, lame duck Congress, which is slated to take up budget issues in a session later this month. USA TODAY reports.
