Vice President Mike Pence plans to visit Arizona next Tuesday with scheduled stops in two cities before returning to Washington that evening., the White House announced.

Pence will visit Tucson to accept the endorsement of the Arizona Association of Police and then go to Mesa to participate in the Latter-day Saints for Trump Coalition rollout in Mesa, the White House said Tuesday in a brief statement.

No additional details were released.

Trump visited Arizona last month for a meeting with Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey and public health officials.

President Bill Clinton in 1996 was the last Democratic nominee to win Arizona but the state is regarded as competitive in this year’s presidential race.
