"Leaders and Activists Unite to Honor 60th Anniversary of March on Washington"

President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris will meet with organizers of the 1963 March on Washington and the family of Martin Luther King Jr. on the 60th anniversary of the historic event. The meeting will take place in the Oval Office, echoing the meeting between President John F. Kennedy and King on the morning of the march. Biden will also speak at a reception commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. This year's commemoration comes at a challenging time, with threats to voting rights, affirmative action, and abortion rights, as well as growing political violence and hatred. Biden and Harris are working to advance King's dream of equal opportunity through executive orders and legislation, while highlighting the benefits of their policies for Black Americans.
