MILWAUKEE, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz is set to speak at a Labor Day celebration in Milwaukee Monday.
Gov. Walz will be joined by his wife, Gwen, at the Milwaukee Area Labor Council’s LaborFest, the Harris-Walz campaign announced Friday.
A news release reads, in part:
As part of the most pro-union administration in history, Vice President Harris has created millions of good-paying jobs…
Governor Walz, a former union member himself, passed the most pro-worker package of laws in Minnesota’s history — making it easier to form unions, strengthening worker protections, cracking down on union-busting, and giving workers paid leave.
President Joe Biden spoke at Laborfest in 2022.
Walz’s trip to Milwaukee will mark his third visit to battleground Wisconsin since he became Vice President Kamala Harris’s running mate. He and Harris campaigned in Eau Claire earlier this month and then rallied voters at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee during the Democratic National Convention.
Former President Donald Trump and his running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, both made appearances in the Badger State this week. Vance was in De Pere for a campaign event Wednesday and Trump held a town hall in La Crosse Thursday.
