JD Vance was named on March 18 as the finance chairman of the Republican National Committee (RNC), becoming the first U.S. vice president to serve in that role.
“Last year, President [Donald] Trump won an historic election victory, taking back the White House and helping Republicans regain control of the Senate and retain control of the House,” said Vance in a statement released by the RNC. “But to fully enact the MAGA mandate and President Trump’s vision that voters demanded, we must keep and grow our Republican majorities in 2026.”
