Marriott will not cancel conference hosted by anti-Muslim hate group
The nation’s largest anti-Muslim hate group is scheduled to hold its annual conference at a Marriott International property 4 miles from the White House, despite pressure from advocacy groups that have been calling on the hotelier to cancel the event.
ACT for America, which has promoted its ties to the Trump administration, is hosting a two-day conference at the Crystal City Gateway Marriott in Arlington, Virginia, on Oct. 2 and 3. The group’s website says the event will be “the nation’s largest national security-focused grass roots gathering.”
It was not clear how many people would attend, but ACT for America — which is classified as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center — says it has 750,000 members.
Marriott said it will not cancel the conference.
