Hillary Clinton agrees to not campaign or run ads on 9-11

NEW YORK — Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and her running mate, Tim Kaine, will not campaign or run ads on Sept. 11.

A campaign official has confirmed that Clinton will refrain from stumping on the 15th anniversary of the terror attacks.

A national non-profit named 9-11 Day sent letters this week to presidential candidates, asking them to stop their public political activities that day. It wants to instead focus the day on service and remembrance.

In addition, 9-11 Day is urging people running for Congress to refrain from campaigning.
