Billionaire business magnate Warren Buffett is slated to introduce Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton at a campaign evening in Omaha, Nebraska Monday afternoon.

Buffett, the chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, endorsed the candidate in December, calling for higher taxes on the top income bracket, despite his vast net worth.

Clinton is expected to discuss her plan for job creation and closing the income gap at the event held at Omaha North High School.

Buffet is the second billionaire to campaign for Clinton – businessman Mark Cuban endorsed the former secretary of state at an event in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Sunday.

Billionaire and former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg also came out heavily against GOP nominee Donald Trump in his speech at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia Wednesday.

While a number of the country’s most successful businessmen have come out in support for Clinton, Trump has garnered the support of investor Carl Icahn and PayPal founder Peter Thiel.
