Attorney General Garland at the @WhiteHouse #UnitedWeStand event: “The Justice Department remains committed to enforcing federal hate crime laws. But, we also recognize that prosecutions alone are not enough.”
@WhiteHouse “That is why the Justice Department has launched its new United Against Hate program. This initiative brings together community groups, community leaders, and law enforcement at every level to build trust and strengthen coordination to combat unlawful acts of hate.”
@WhiteHouse “And today, I am pleased to announce that this initiative will expand to 16 more @USAttorneys offices, and will launch in all 94 U.S. Attorneys’ offices within the next year.”
@WhiteHouse @USAttorneys “As I have said many times before, the Justice Department does not investigate or prosecute people because of their ideology or the views they hold. In our democracy, people are entitled to voice their opinions, to argue, and to debate.”
@WhiteHouse @USAttorneys “But in our democracy, people are not entitled to commit violent acts or make unlawful violent threats motivated by bias or hate. The Justice Department will not hesitate to hold accountable people who do so.”
@WhiteHouse @USAttorneys DOJ Launches Nationwide Initiative to Combat Unlawful Acts of Hate
Through the United Against Hate Initiative, All 94 @USAttorneys Offices Will Host Outreach and Community Engagement Programs to Address & Prevent Unlawful Acts of Hate Over the Next Year

Tune in tonight at 5:30pm ET: Deputy AG Lisa O. Monaco will participate in a discussion at the @SilveradoPolicy Leadership & Service Forum: "Portraits in Public Service & National Security" with @ODNIgov Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines.
DAG Monaco: DOJ is working very hard to address & respond to the Russia aggression & atrocities in Ukraine across a host of vectors, whether it’s war crimes, investigations & prosecutions, responding to cyber attacks & probing, or going after sanctions evasion.
DAG Monaco: The polarization in our society that too often is resulting in threats & violence against public officials—from election workers to judges to airline workers to you name it—is really concerning. This shouldn’t be tolerated & we need to hold people to account for it.
