Trump is set to speak at an invitation-only meeting of the Detroit Economic Club and is expected to tour a Ford Motor Company factory.
Trump has frequently appeared in the swing-state of Michigan, arguing his use of tariffs would aid Detroit’s signature auto industry and help return manufacturing back to the U.S..
Tariffs have increased costs for automakers, even with carve-outs for the industry.
Trump also eased Biden-era emissions standards and erased tax credits designed to promote electric vehicles.
His handling of the economy is seen as a key issue in the state’s Congressional and gubernatorial races this year.
