ATLANTA, GA—President Donald Trump visited Georgia again on Friday afternoon. According to the White House schedule, the president delivered remarks for an event called "Black Economic Empowerment: The Platinum Plan."

Register to watch the livestream on the campaign site or watch PBS live coverage below. It begins at 2:30 EST.

This was Trump’s 10th visit to Georgia during his presidency. He landed at Dobbins Air Reserve Base then headed to the Cobb Galleria Centre in Cobb County around 2 p.m. He spoke about his plan to make sure African Americans have equal opportunities to start businesses and earn money, reported WSB.

“Racial justice begins with Joe Biden’s retirement from public life," the Atlanta Journal-Constitution quoted him saying. Trump also unveiled a plan that endorsed the creation of a federal Juneteenth holiday and backed an anti-lynching initiative, making it a federal hate crime.

Trump recently visited Atlanta in July to discuss major transportation projects in the area.

His daughter and White House adviser Ivanka Trump has visited Atlanta to discuss ways to combat human sex trafficking.

An Atlanta Journal-Constitution poll released Tuesday shows Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and Trump tied at 47 percent apiece.

Biden launched a new slate of ads in Georgia Tuesday aimed at Black voters in the state, as his campaign expands investment in battleground states that could provide multiple paths to victory in November.

The former vice president's campaign said the spots will air on television and digital platforms in metro Atlanta and on cable across the state.

Georgia is a pivotal state for the path to the White House, with both candidates investing resources into the rapidly purpling electorate. Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms and former Democratic gubernatorial nominee Stacey Abrams have been key supporters of Biden's campaign, and local party officials see an opportunity for Georgia to deliver votes for a Democratic presidential candidate for the first time since 1992.

The state is a high-profile battleground for control of the U.S. Senate as well, with both seats on the ballot thanks to a special election to fill the rest of the retired Republican Sen. Johnny Isakson's term and the regularly-scheduled contest for the seat held by Republican Sen. David Perdue.

Polling shows a tight race in all three contests, with the 21-candidate special election likely headed to a runoff between the top two candidates, regardless of party.
