On Sunday, the White House announced that the roundtable would be rescheduled. No specific date has been given yet for when the event will take place.

The announcement comes hours after former President Donald Trump was injured in an apparent assassination attempt Saturday as he began speaking at a campaign rally in western Pennsylvania.

A passerby was killed and two others were seriously injured.

It is the first assassination attempt against a sitting president or presidential candidate since 1981.
