President Biden’s reelection campaign will start up activities on Monday night after they halted them following the shooting at former President Trump’s rally, an official told The Hill.

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) will also start up activities. The Republican National Convention in Milwaukee takes place this week, and activities from Democrats will be part of counterprogramming.

The activities will start up after Biden’s prime-time interview with NBC’s Lester Holt airs Monday.

“Following the president’s interview Monday evening, both the DNC and the campaign will continue drawing the contrast between our positive vision for the future and Trump and Republicans’ backwards-looking agenda over the course of the week,” the official said.

The Biden campaign paused its communications and was working to pull down its television ads on Saturday.

Biden and Trump spoke later on Saturday night for a conversation that the president said was good in remarks on Sunday. He is set to speak later on Sunday from the Oval Office.
