MILWAUKEE — Vice President Kamala Harris is set to visit Milwaukee on Monday.

The White House announced Harris's trip to the Brew City last week. She will be joined by Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan and Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff.

Harris, along with Regan, Emhoff, U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) and Rep. Gwen Moore (D-Milwaukee), will visit the nonprofit Wisconsin Regional Training Partnership/Building Industry Group Skilled Trades Employment Program (WTRP | BIGSTEP) building. They will meet with local community leaders, public health leaders and union workers.

The trip follows the Dec. 16 announcement of the Biden-Harris Lead Pipe and Paint Action Plan, which accelerates the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law investments toward a goal of removing and replacing all lead pipes in the next decade.

Following a tour of WTRP | BIGSTEP, the White House said at around 4 p.m. CST that the Vice President will deliver remarks on the importance of the funding in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to remove and replace lead pipes across the nation and in Wisconsin.

Harris and the Second Gentleman will then depart Milwaukee for Washington, D.C. at around 6:15 p.m. CST.

The upcoming trip marks the first time Harris has visited Milwaukee since last May, where she toured UW-Milwaukee's clean energy laboratories and participated in a roundtable discussion. Prior to the election, she visited the city in September 2020 and met with the family of Jacob Blake, a Black man who was shot and paralyzed by a white police officer in Kenosha the month before.
