Mayor Bloomberg will travel to Washington, D.C., tomorrow to give a speech on reducing poverty, the latest of several out-of-state trips he has made to speak on national issues.
Mr. Bloomberg will deliver the keynote address at an event hosted by a liberal think tank, the Brookings Institution, speaking the same day that new poverty figures from the U.S. Census Bureau are released.
Poverty reduction efforts in New York City and a strategy for addressing poverty on a national scale will be two focuses of Mr. Bloomberg’s speech, an advisory from the mayor’s office said.
Mr. Bloomberg’s trip Washington will mark at least the eighth time he has traveled out of state in the past six months, all accompanied by statements saying he has no plans to run for president.
Since March, Mr. Bloomberg has flown to Texas to talk on national energy policy, Ohio to speak about public safety, California to discuss the perils of partisan politics, and Missouri to deliver an address on education, in addition to trips to Oklahoma, Florida, and Montana.
