WHCA plans security-first follow-up dinner after Hilton shooting

The White House Correspondents’ Association announced a second dinner on July 24 in Washington, D.C., with significantly enhanced security and new access procedures after April’s shooting at the Washington Hilton halted the first event. The gathering will be a more intimate affair and serve as a public statement against violence toward the press, with funds raised to cover attendee tickets and to support scholarship winners; specifics will be shared with attendees, and it’s unclear whether Trump will attend.
