MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Gov. Scott Walker is scheduled to attend a White House ceremony Thursday with President Donald Trump and members of his Cabinet focused on bolstering American workers including at the planned Foxconn Technology Group project in Wisconsin.
Walker was among many other elected officials, including U.S. Rep. Sean Duffy, who were to appear at the event. Trump was to sign an executive order establishing a National Council for the American Worker.
