Former GOP presidential hopeful Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is set to appear alongside his former rivals Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio ahead of Tuesday’s Republican debate hosted by Fox Business Network.

Walker, who dropped out of the running in September, will join Bush at an event promoting the state’s school choice program at a charter school Monday afternoon in Waukesha, Wisc.

Following his appearance with the former Florida governor, Walker will join Rubio for a fundraiser at the Veterans Terrace in Burlington, the Washington Post reports.

Walker has yet to announce which candidate he plans to back for the nomination.

“This is not an endorsement of Governor Bush,” Walker spokesman Tom Evenson told ABC News. “The governor is just willing to meet with any presidential candidate to talk about the issues that matter to voters.”

Politico reports the Rubio campaign has been vying for Walker’s endorsement, having called the governor last week to ask for his support.

Walker sent a fundraising email Friday asking his supporters for donations to help with nearly $1 million of debt incurred over the course of his campaign.
