The visit, coming in the next two months, was confirmed to the Star Tribune by an unnamed administration official. No details have been released.

"President Obama is adding more fund-raisers to his schedule, traveling to Florida and Minnesota over the next six weeks...."

The president, who stopped in Minnesota often during his 2008 campaign, was in the state one year ago to push for health care overhaul.
