Trump's visit to the Supreme Court will also coincide with the justices' private meeting on how to handle his executive order banning travel from six majority-Muslim nations. The Senate approved Gorsuch in April to fill the seat left vacant following the death of Justice Antonin Scalia in February 2016. Presidents usually attend formal ceremonies for justices at the Supreme Court.
