Washington — Gov. Tim Walz on Wednesday agreed to participate in a vice presidential debate hosted by CBS News on Oct. 1 in New York City.

Earlier in the day, CBS News proposed four dates for a debate between the two vice presidential nominees: Sept. 17, Sept. 24, Oct. 1, and Oct. 8.

A campaign official said Walz "looks forward to debating JD Vance — if he shows up.".

Vance did not respond to questions from reporters about whether he would agree to the debate when returning from an event in Michigan on Wednesday.
