Former President Donald Trump will return to Wisconsin on Saturday to hold a rally in Mosinee, a city in the central part of the state near Wausau and Stevens Point.
The rally will be held at Central Wisconsin Airport around 1 p.m. on Sept. 7, his campaign announced Sunday. Tickets for the rally are available at this link.
The campaign's announcement indicates Trump's remarks will focus heavily on the economy.
"Voting red will ensure Wisconsinites can experience a thriving economy full of better jobs, higher income, and lower unemployment rates. If Americans want more money in their pockets, the only option is to vote for President Trump," the campaign said in a release.
Trump used the same airport for a rally during his 2020 campaign, and in 2018 when he campaigned for then-Gov. Scott Walker's reelection and U.S. Senate candidate Leah Vukmir.
Mosinee is located within Wisconsin's solidly red 7th Congressional District, which is currently held by Republican U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany.
Trump was last in Wisconsin on Thursday, when he held a town hall event in La Crosse. This will be Trump's fourth rally of this campaign cycle in Wisconsin, after holding rallies in Green Bay, Waukesha and Racine.
Both campaigns have been visiting the state frequently with less than ten weeks until Election Day.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democratic nominee for vice president, will speak at Laborfest in Milwaukee tomorrow. President Joe Biden is also set to visit southwestern Wisconsin on Thursday, his first visit to the state since dropping out of the presidential race.
“The more Wisconsinites hear from Donald Trump and about his Project 2025 agenda to hike our taxes and ban abortion, the more they will be motivated to come together to defeat him this fall," a statement from the Wisconsin Harris-Walz Communications Director Brianna Johnson, read. "Trump is visiting Mosinee just days after he endorsed his home state’s extreme abortion ban and as he’s running on a platform that would rip away reproductive freedom here in Wisconsin. Trump’s extreme Project 2025 agenda would give him the power to punish women for seeking reproductive care, ban abortion nationwide, and threaten access to IVF and contraception. The only way to stop him is by voting for Vice President Harris and Governor Walz this November.”
