BANGOR, Maine–Vice President JD Vance highlighted broad anti-fraud initiatives he is spearheading and endorsed local Republican candidates while headlining a rally held at the Bangor International Airport on May 14.

“This does not need to be Republican versus Democrat. This needs to be fraudster against non-fraudster,” Vance said, offering to negotiate across the political aisle to identify fraud. “This needs to be good government versus bad government.”
