The White House will convene a “bipartisan group of federal, state, and local officials, civil rights groups, faith and community leaders, technology and business leaders, law enforcement officials” and other stakeholders for a summit to continue the Biden administration’s efforts to counter violent extremism, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said on Friday.
In a statement announcing the 15 September “United We Stand Summit,” Ms Jean-Pierre said the event will “counter the corrosive effects of hate-fueled violence on our democracy and public safety, highlight the response of the Biden-Harris Administration and communities nationwide to these dangers, and put forward a shared vision for a more united America”.
