Vice President Kamala Harris is returning to Las Vegas on Saturday to highlight the Biden-Harris administration’s commitment to uplifting small businesses and supporting entrepreneurship, the White House said this morning.

She’ll speak alongside U.S. Rep. Steven Horsford, D-Nev., and Isabella Guzman, the U.S. small business administrator. A news release didn’t indicate where Harris would be appearing.

Harris spoke in Las Vegas earlier this month at the Culinary Workers Union to congratulate members on their new contracts with major Las Vegas resorts.

Her appearance coincides with the opening of early voting in the state’s presidential preference primary.

Additionally, former President Donald Trump will appear at 1 p.m. Saturday at the Big League Dreams sports complex in northeast Las Vegas for a “commit to caucus” event.

The Feb. 8 caucus, put on by the Nevada GOP with no oversight from the Nevada secretary of state, is down to Trump and Ryan Binkley, the only other person on the caucus ballot. Binkley is a Texas millionaire funding his own campaign.
