Washington (CNN) The House Republican retreat is scheduled to take place in Baltimore -- the same city in Maryland that President Donald Trump denigrated over the weekend as a "disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess," while writing that "no human being would want to live there."

House Republican leadership announced in April that their annual retreat would take place September 12-14 in Baltimore, months before the President went on a Twitter tirade against Democratic Rep. Elijah Cummings and his district.

It is common for the President to speak at their party's annual congressional retreat. Last year, Trump and Vice President Mike Pence both spoke at the GOP gathering, which was hosted in West Virginia.

The Washington Post first reported the retreat would be held in Baltimore.

The office of Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, the House Republican conference chair, did not immediately return CNN's request for comment. The House Republican Conference handles the retreat planning in conjunction with the nonprofit Congressional Institute.
