FBI The Metro !AF recently sent you a letter requesting a meeting vi1ith you, and I wanted to ask if you would be willing to consider it (I have attached a copy for your convenience), The particular concern that this letter addresses is the role that the Federal government can/should play in the vlolence against f\1uslirns and the widespread concern about violence against ~v1uslim communities and places of worship. If you would be wllling to meet with representatives of Metro IAF, I think that it would be of tremendous benefit, I would be delighted to join the discussion as well.

To:! Subject: [Ext] Director Jim Corney for May 19th? I b6 -2 It was nice speaking with you. Thank you for agreeing to reach out to Mr. Corney to find out if he is available th and interested in serving as our keynote speaker for our May 19 Chicago Bar Association summit titled: A Path Toward Solutions: Curbing the Violence in Chicago. As you know, Chicago has become the symbol of the violence epidemic which is affecting so much of our country. We feel compelled to take action and try to stop this escalating trend. We have commitments from most Chicago stakeholders to participate (Police, the Judiciary, City Council, State's Attorney, Public Defender, religious leaders, community leaders, educators). We expect that this lineup, combined with the respect that our 20,000 member bar association has earned, will create a great deal of interest from the media and from the public, both of whom are acutely interested in finding solutions to this crisis. The program will run from 8:45 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. in the Grand Ballroom of the Chicago Standard Club. The panel discussions will be titled: • "The Relationship Between Law Enforcement and the Community"; • "The Affected Communities: People, Police, Problems and Progress"; FBI • "The Impact of Media and Social Media on Chicago Violence"; and • "Gun Violence in the Justice System: What Can Chicago Learn from Other Cities?" Ideally, Director Corney would be our lunchtime keynote speaker. If, however, his schedule required him to join us at some other time during the day, we could certainly accommodate him.
