Vice President JD Vance will travel to La Crosse, Wisconsin, on Thursday to speak at a steel fabricating facility about the megabill's benefits for manufacturing, a source tells Axios.

Why it matters: Vance, who grew up in the Rust Belt, is promoting President Trump's economic wins at a time when workers and companies fear tariffs could produce headwinds.

The big picture: Vance, the most likely GOP presidential nominee in 2028, has also traveled to the swing states of Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Ohio to celebrate passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

A Vance spokesman told us Trump "has been diligently fulfilling his campaign promises to the American people by providing working families historic tax relief, no taxes on tips and no taxes on overtime."

"Thanks to President Trump, the tax code is fairer and now rewards American companies when they invest in domestic production and create American jobs."
