1. Press release added to OP

2. Great, but why does their grammar have to be so bad?

As it reads now they are ending the roundtable. Caps don't fix that.

Bipartisan Task Force to End Sexual Violence roudtable...

Should read...

Bipartisan Roundtable Task Force to End Sexual Violence.

or...

Roundtable of the Bipartisan Task Force to End Sexual Violence.

There are several ways to say it that make sense... and one way that makes it sound foolish. Communication is incredibly important when dealing with a serious subject like this.
