Washington (CNN)Kim Kardashian West will meet with officials, including senior adviser Jared Kushner, at the White House on Wednesday to discuss prison reform, a person familiar with the plans says.
It's not clear if Kardashian West will meet with President Donald Trump.
The entrepreneur and reality television star has advocated for a pardon for a low-level drug offender named Alice Marie Johnson, who has served more than 20 years in prison.
Prison reform has been a key issue for Kushner. Earlier this month, the White House-backed First Step Act, which would expand programs for prisoners and allow for more home confinement, was approved by the House Judiciary Committee.
Kardashian West has said she supported Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election, but her husband, Kanye West, has signaled his support for Trump.
In 2016, West met with the President-elect at Trump Tower in New York. And last month, after releasing a photograph wearing a "Make America Great Again" cap, West released a song defending his praise of the President.
Kardashian West's White House visit was earlier reported by Vanity Fair.

To be fair to ( can’t call her by name). She has been following this case for quite a while and actually has become well informed in that subject

It's a good move. It will help both of their ratings. Next week Trump will meet with Roseanne Barr to discuss sleeping pill reform.

Kim was able to do something she could never have done at any time prior to Jan. 20, 2017...
Walk into the Oval Office and raise the average IQ of the room...

Bringing in a bowl of kimchi would do the same also too.

I'm not surprised that Trump, unlike other presidents, hasn't waited until he was almost out of office to issue pardons.

I'm not surprised either...
He's discovered a tool he can use unilaterally to both generate news cycle diversions and send dog whistles to co-operating witnesses (and potential co-operating witnesses) in the Russiagate investigation...
Just the sort of cynical, self-serving thing I'd expect him to engage in; right up his street...
