Attorney General William Barr on Wednesday said he wants a national summit in December "to confront the threat of mass shootings as part of a federal law enforcement campaign to refine our ability to identify attackers before they strike."
The subject remains a touchy one because of the mass shooting in the Oregon District in August, which put Dayton on a list of 283 such shootings that have occurred across the nation as of Sept. 1.
Barr has not said exactly when or where the summit will be.
