Six years after winning Wisconsin's 2016 Republican presidential primary, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, returns to Milwaukee June 25 to headline an organizing event for conservatives at the Wisconsin Center.

The "Together for Truth" summit is being put together by the Cruz-aligned Truth and Courage PAC.

Other speakers include conservative radio host Michael Berry, former acting U.S. Attorney General Matt Whitaker and Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt, who is running in a crowded Missouri GOP U.S. Senate primary.

“With so much on the line this year, I am honored to be joining the ‘Together for Truth’ summit in Milwaukee this month," Cruz said in a statement. "The fate of the nation will be decided by the upcoming midterm elections, and that’s why it’s so important for conservatives to join us at ‘Together for Truth’ where they’ll learn how to win big in their communities. If we come together, we can take back America and chart a better course for our country.”
