Trump told the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday that the Taiwanese manufacturer,
best known for assembling iPhones, was considering building a plant in
Wisconsin.
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker tweeted Wednesday about a "major jobs announcement"
with Trump scheduled for later in the day.

Reps for Foxconn did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Foxconn previously told CNNMoney "it is not currently possible to confirm
the locations for those potential investments or estimate the number of jobs
that might be created."
Shortly after Trump's inauguration, Foxconn's CEO Terry Gou began teasing
plans to invest more than $7 billion in a plant for producing displays,
with the potential to create as many as 50,000 jobs.
However, Gou has been talking about shifting some manufacturing to the
United States for several years, with little to show for it so far. In 2013,
for example, Foxconn announced plans to build a $30 million plant in
Pennsylvania. It has yet to be built.

This time, Foxconn may be coaxed by generous tax incentives. The Milwaukee
Journal Sentinel reports Wisconsin's deal for the new Foxconn plant may
include incentives totaling as much as $3 billion.

The announcement may give Trump a victory as he looks to bring back jobs.

, beautiful plants" in the U.S.
