MEXICO CITY (AP) - President Felipe Calderon is preparing for his first trip to the United States as head of state, after canceling a September visit to attend to catastrophic flooding in southern Mexico.

The Feb. 10-14 tour includes stops in New York, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles and the California state capital of Sacramento, according to a statement from the Senate, which still must approve the president's trip in what is usually a formality.

Further details were not available from the Senate or the president's office. Last year, Calderon said he had a special interest in meeting with the Mexican community in the U.S. Washington was not on his itinerary.
