President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that Republicans will hold a midterm convention next year to showcase his administration's accomplishments, as the GOP seeks to increase its slim majority in the House through redistricting.

The announcement, made on Truth Social, did not specify when or where the convention would be held, saying only that those details were still "to be determined."

"The Republicans are going to do a Midterm Convention in order to show the great things we have done since the Presidential Election of 2024," Trump wrote, adding "it will be quite the Event, and very exciting!"

The Republican National Committee declined to provide additional details, but RNC spokesperson Kiersten Pels said in a statement that Trump is "leading with bold, innovative ideas to energize our Party and keep us on the path to victory."
