CLIVE, Iowa—President Donald Trump will visit a suburb of Des Moines, Iowa, on Jan. 27, a week after he celebrated the first anniversary of his second inauguration, to give a talk to supporters in a state that twice helped propel him to the presidency.

While in the state, the president will make a stop at a local business and then deliver a speech on affordability and the economy, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said. The remarks will be at the Horizon Events Center in Clive, a suburb of Des Moines. The trip will also highlight energy policy, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles said last week.
