President Donald Trump is scheduled to visit Michigan on Monday, July 27, 2026, to spotlight manufacturing and auto industry jobs ahead of the state’s August primary voting. He will speak at General Motors’ Milford Proving Ground facility in Milford, known as the world’s oldest dedicated vehicle testing site, where GM tests new vehicles and emerging technologies.

Trump is expected to focus on the economy, highlighting his administration’s efforts to rebuild the U.S. auto industry and expand domestic manufacturing. According to the White House, the administration has helped secure over $20 billion in business investments in Michigan, resulting in more than 1,600 new jobs. Officials also cite tariffs on imported vehicles and tax incentives for American-made cars as benefits to the state’s auto sector, though critics argue these tariffs have increased costs for consumers.

With midterm elections 100 days away, Republicans are working to maintain control of Congress. Rogers’ campaign has confirmed plans to join the president during Monday’s visit.

Michigan resident Rina Shah expressed concern about broader economic risks, stating, “The Iran conflict is the biggest risk. Gas is climbing.”
