President Joe Biden will make his third visit to Minnesota as president later this week.
Biden is expected to visit the University of Minnesota this Sunday to attend the funeral of former Vice President Walter Mondale.
The White House has not disclosed any details of the trip, but the University of Minnesota confirmed to Fox 9 that Biden plans to attend and speak at Mondale’s memorial service on May 1. Mondale and Biden’s senate terms overlapped from 1973-77.
Governor Tim Walz and Senators Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith are also expected to speak at the memorial. Mondale died in April 2021 at the age of 93.
