Call Your Senators and Tell Them to Oppose Russ Vought's Nomination to Lead the Office of Management and Budget

Because he’s serious about implementing Project 2025, Trump has nominated its ‘chief architect’ Russ Vought (pronounced like “Vote”) to lead the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). OMB is possibly the most powerful federal agency you rarely, if ever, hear about; it oversees the implementation of the President’s vision for the whole Executive Branch, crafting budgets, managing operations, and reviewing draft regulations and policies to make sure agencies are complying with the President’s priorities. Under Trump 2.0, OMB will essentially be the top enforcer of Project 2025 - and he’s nominated one of its authors and top MAGA strategist, Russ Vought, to be OMB Director.

Vought held this same role at OMB in Trump’s first term, so we don’t have to guess how much damage he’ll do if he gets a chance at round two. He’ll double down on concentrating unprecedented executive power and transforming the federal government into a tool of white Christian nationalism and political revenge. He’ll orchestrate budgets that slash funding for vital programs and direct spending in violation of congressional authority, like when he held up aid to Ukraine as part of Trump’s attempted extortion scheme. He’ll implement the personnel policy Trump has vowed to reinstate on day one that will enable mass firings across the federal government to make way for loyal MAGA operatives. And he’s reportedly been secretly drafting a first 180 days playbook filled with executive orders, policies, and other plans so Trump 2.0 can hit the ground running with maximum damage.

Demand your Senators vote NO on Vought (pronounced like “Vote”) to be Director of OMB. Trump may have tried to distance himself from Project 2025 on the campaign trail to get elected, but nominating Russ Vought proves he’s putting those plans into overdrive. Fill out this form, and we’ll connect you to your Senators so you can urge them to vote NO on Vought.
