Virginia FoxxHouse Minority Leader John Boehner is coming to North Carolina.

The Ohio Republican will be the featured guest at a fundraiser for U.S. Rep. Virginia Foxx, who is running for a third term in office, according to Roll Call.

The Oct. 5 fundraiser will be held at a private residence in the Fifth District. Tickets range from $100 to $1,000.

The trip is partly political payback. Foxx supported Boehner's bid to replace Rep. Tom DeLay as House majority leader in 2006, over Rep. Roy Blunt of Missouri.

The two also toured a Davie County elementary school in 2005.
