President-elect Donald Trump has revealed that a key figure in his first administration will return to his post.
Russell Vought, who led the Office of Management and Budget during Trump’s first term, will hold the same position in the new administration.
“Russ has spent many years working in public policy in Washington, D.C., and is an aggressive cost cutter and deregulator who will help us implement our America First agenda across all agencies,” Trump wrote in a Nov. 22 statement, which was released minutes after he announced that Scott Bessent would lead the Department of the Treasury.
