Those wanting to take part in a meet and greet with Pence will have to part with $10,000.

The stop at the fundraiser for Saccone is part of a larger effort by Pence to boost Republicans across the country ahead of the midterm elections, according to a Politico report published earlier this month.

Pence's appearance at the fundraiser will come roughly two weeks after President Trump Donald John TrumpBiden leads Trump by 36 points nationally among Latinos: poll Trump dismisses climate change role in fires, says Newsom needs to manage forest better Jimmy Kimmel hits Trump for rallies while hosting Emmy Awards MORE traveled to Pennsylvania.

The White House sought to frame that trip as an official stop to tout the recently passed GOP tax plan. But Trump tweeted at the time that he was going to Pennsylvania "in order to give my total support" to Saccone.
