President Donald Trump planning Wisconsin visit on Tuesday
President Donald Trump is planning a Tuesday visit to the Kenosha headquarters of tool manufacturer Snap-on Inc., his first visit to Wisconsin since taking office. That's according to Rep. Tod Ohnstad (D-Kenosha), whose Wisconsin Assembly district includes the Snap-on facility. Ohnstad said Sunday he's heard that Snap-on employees have been notified of the planned presidential visit.
Also, on Saturday, several military helicopters were seen flying over Kenosha, with some landing at the Snap-on headquarters, 2801 80th St., Ohnstad said. The White House confirmed that the president will pay a visit. Snap-on representatives did not respond to requests for more information.
Snap-on makes tools and automotive diagnostics equipment. It no longer has manufacturing operations in Kenosha, but its headquarters has engineers, technicians and other office employees, Ohnstad said. The company, which has annual revenue of $3.4 billion, also operates a distribution center in Kenosha.
Ohnstad said he doesn't know why Trump is planning to visit Snap-on, which is in the Congressional district of House Speaker Paul Ryan.
