(Politico) President Joe Biden is expected to attend the 9/11 memorial in New York City to mark the 20th anniversary of the terrorist attacks, four sources with knowledge of his plans told POLITICO.
The White House recently indicated to officials in New York that Biden plans to travel for the commemoration, two of the sources said. Officials are also looking at possible stops at other locations attacked that day: the Pentagon and the Flight 93 National Memorial in Shanksville, Pa. But one administration official said it may be logistically difficult to attend all three spots in one day.
A White House spokesperson had no comment.
In 2020, during the heat of the presidential campaign, Biden and then-Vice President Mike Pence both attended the New York City ceremony at the 9/11 Memorial & Museum, which was erected in the location of the downed Twin Towers.
