TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — JD Vance is making another stop in Southern Arizona on Tuesday.

Tuesday's rally will be held at the Pima County Fairgrounds, again focusing on the Trump campaign's " No Tax on Tips" policy.

With former President Barack Obama visiting Tucson last week, the efforts from both parties in Pima County and Arizona emphasizes how important Arizona is in this election.

Vance is set to land around 3 p.m. this afternoon and deliver remarks around 4:30 p.m.

After his speech, Vance will be making at stop at the Delicias Mexican Grill on the Southside before leaving by 6:40 p.m.

Ahead of Vance's visit, the Harris campaign sent us this statement:

“JD Vance has shown time and again that he’ll do whatever Trump tells him, pushing his extreme and dangerous Project 2025 agenda that would give him the power to ban abortion nationwide and rip away health care from 1.4 million Arizonans. Just yesterday a new, nonpartisan report found that their agenda will cause Social Security, which our seniors rely on, to run out in six years. Arizonans are looking for leaders who will stand up for their families—not sell them out. It’s time to finally turn the page on Trump’s extreme and harmful agenda and elect Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz to chart a new way forward.”

Democratic vice-presidential hopeful Tim Walz will campaign in the state on Saturday.
