Roy Cooper is in Washington today.

The state attorney general will speak at the spring session of the National Association of Attorneys General at the Fairmont Hotel.

He'll be joined in a discussion on legal issues surrounding social networking sites such as MySpace and Facebook. 

He'll be joined by attorneys general Bill McCollum of Florida and Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut.

Spokeswoman Noelle Talley said that Cooper was scheduled to arrive in Washington Sunday night, before several inches of snow hit the capital.

Cooper has long sparred with social networking sites over parental consent and the presence of sex offenders online.
