Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump will visit Phoenix Aug. 31 and will hold a "unity" rally at a downtown hotel, a campaign official said this week.
Originally, a campaign official said Trump would speak about immigration in Phoenix, but The Associated Press reported Thursday that the candidate's Arizona campaign director said that was because of a "staff error."
The candidate this week said he will propose a "fair but firm" approach to dealing with the estimated 11 million immigrants in the country illegally. That came after a weekend meeting with Latino leaders.
Until now, Trump has been consistent in saying he will deport those here illegally and build a wall. This week, he reiterated the pledge to build the wall but said he was considering a "softer" approach on immigrants here illegally.
His campaign began last year with Trump's pronouncement that Mexicans are "bringing drugs, they're bringing crime. And some, I assume, are good people."
