Crime: United States Attorney’s Office Encourages Reporting of Hate Crimes
The United States Attorney’s Office in Wyoming is cracking down on hate crimes by hosting a public outreach program to educate the public about federal hate crimes and unlawful discrimination. The United Against Hate initiative is a nationwide effort to combat hate crimes by encouraging the reporting of hate incidents and unlawful discrimination to law enforcement.
According to U.S. Attorney Nick Vassallo, people deserve to live without fear of being attacked or harassed because of where they are from, what they look like, how they worship, or what they believe. The office and the Justice Department encourage the public to report acts of hate to law enforcement for investigation.
The public outreach program will be held at the Laramie County Library, Cottonwood Room, on Thursday, September 21, 2023, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. The event is free to the public and will include a presentation and open discussion about federal hate crimes and unlawful discrimination.
Any act of hate can be reported to the United States Attorney’s Office in Wyoming by emailing USAWY.ReportHate@usdoj.gov. Hate crimes can also be reported to local law enforcement, and to the FBI by calling 1-800-CALL-FBI (800-225-5324) or online at https://tips.fbi.gov. Additional information on reporting hate crimes can be found at https://www.justice.gov/hatecrimes/report-a-hate-crime, which is available in two dozen languages. Discrimination can be reported by emailing USAWY.CivilRights@usdoj.gov or online at https://civilrights.justice.gov/.
The United Against Hate initiative aims to make a difference in the community by educating the public about federal hate crimes and unlawful discrimination. The office encourages the public to attend the public outreach program and learn more about how to report hate crimes.
