Gathering in September at the White House intends to bring together Democrats and Republicans to seek solutions
Joe Biden will host a White House summit next month aimed at combating hate-fueled violence.
“As President Biden said in Buffalo after the horrific mass shooting earlier this year, in the battle for the soul of our nation ‘We must all enlist in this great cause of America,’” press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement. The White House emphasized that it intends to bring together Democrats and Republicans, as well as leaders on the federal, state and local levels.
“As civil rights organizations, social justice organizations, we fight every day against this, and we wanted to make sure to acknowledge that government needs to have a leading role in addressing rightwing extremism,” she said.
