President Biden to Host Summit Focused on Ending the Effects of Hate-Fueled Violence
President Biden plans to host a summit in mid-September focused on stamping out the effects of hate-fueled violence in the United States in furtherance of his campaign pledge to unify the country.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement on Friday that the “United We Stand” summit would be held on September 15 at the White House with the goal of countering “the corrosive effects of hate-fueled violence on our democracy and public safety.”
“Even as our nation has endured a disturbing series of hate-fueled attacks, from Oak Creek to Pittsburgh, from El Paso to Poway, from Atlanta to Buffalo, Americans remain overwhelmingly united in their opposition to such violence,” Jean-Pierre said.
