Vought previously served as director of the OMB in the first Trump administration from 2020 to 2021, and served as deputy director of the OMB from 2018 to 2020.
Vought is the founder of the Center for Renewing America, a conservative think tank aimed at countering progressive social values, promoting an "America First" foreign policy, addressing border security and immigration, and reforming the federal bureaucracy.[1] He has also played a significant role in Project 2025, an initiative led by the Heritage Foundation that aims to advance conservative policies and reshape the federal government.[2] In May 2024, he was appointed Policy Director of the Republican National Committee's platform committee.
On November 23, 2024, President-elect Donald Trump announced the nomination of Vought as Director of the OMB for his second term as president. Vought's nomination was confirmed by the U.S. Senate on February 6, 2025 by a vote of 53–47. On August 29, 2025, Vought took charge of the USAID closeout after it was folded into the U.S. Department of State.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cc6ae5v4dh4btwl3p4o7d27f/bafkreibulpurzhlidwbjxdeem7u6szoowb6viq5plf3em7lhue4i3ekfsu@jpeg)
