The owner of a hotel in Orlando, Florida's tourist district has reached an agreement with the U.S. Justice Department after the agency sued alleging discrimination when the resort canceled a planned conference for an Arab American group in the weeks after the attack which triggered the war in Gaza.

A Florida hotel owner reached an agreement with the DOJ, which accused the hotel of discrimination after it canceled a planned conference for an Arab American group.

Managers at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Orlando at SeaWorld claimed they were concerned about safety risks as they shut down the event, even though they had received no threats and had no evidence indicating the conference posed a safety risk,
