Donald Trump plans to head Thursday to the U.S. border with Mexico, where he is expected to talk more about his thoughts on immigration, CNN reported.

Trump will travel to Laredo, Texas for a tour with U.S. border patrol agents. He was invited by a chapter of the National Border Control Council, which also invited Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), according to the report.

He has been widely criticized for calling Mexican immigrants “rapists” and drug dealers in his presidential announcement speech.
