Clinton, Bush, Among Presidential Candidates to Take
Part in National Urban League Conference

Candidates for the 2016 U.S.
Presidential Election will participate in
the National Urban League Conference,
including former Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton, former Florida Gov. Jeb
Bush, Senator Bernie Sanders, former
Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, and
retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson.
The candidates will share their
visions for saving our cities on Friday,
July 31, during a session entitled “Off

To The Races: The 2016 Presidential
Candidates’ Plenary.”
“As we convene in Florida to
deliberate solutions to the economic and
social challenges our cities are facing,
it’s vital that those contending for the
highest office in the land be part of that
conversation,” National Urban League
President and CEO Marc H. Morial said.
The candidates’ plenary will take
place on the second full day of the

Conference themed “Save Our Cities:
Education, Jobs + Justice.”
“Our focus was inspired by a year
that saw little accountability for law
enforcement responsible for killing
unarmed Black men, teenagers and
children; a continual assault on voting
rights; widening economic inequality
gaps; and an increasingly partisan
education debate
