President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that the Republican Party will hold a first-ever midterm convention this year to celebrate the successes achieved in the past two years.

The event is planned for Sept. 9–10 in Dallas, Trump said on Truth Social.

“We are going to celebrate the Great American Comeback, and the incredible successes of the American People who transformed our Country through the America First Agenda—no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security, stronger borders, safest ever communities, lower costs and real affordability, more jobs, American energy dominance, and so much more!” Trump said in the announcement.
