Most recently, on May 2, 2025, the White House Office of Management and Budget released President Trump's Fiscal Year 2026 "skinny budget," marking Vought's first major budget proposal since returning to the OMB. Vought emphasized that the President's budget delivers on campaign promises while addressing fiscal priorities.
On May 6, 2025, Vought appeared on CNBC's "Squawk Box" to discuss details of the newly released 2026 budget plan and how it aligns with President Trump's policy agenda. During this appearance, he outlined the administration's fiscal vision and defended controversial spending priorities.
Vought's confirmation earlier this year was contentious, with Democrats holding the Senate floor for 30 hours in protest. Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut spoke for three hours during the overnight session, stating: "This is really important, that we raise the alarm as to what is happening."
Critics have expressed concern about Vought's approach to federal budgeting. Democratic Senator Mazie Hirono of Hawaii noted during the confirmation process that "Americans need to know that OMB is extremely powerful, with oversight over the president's budget and functionally all federal agency actions, including regulatory decisions."
Since taking office, Vought has signaled plans to expand OMB's influence across federal agencies, describing its role as "the best, most comprehensive approximation of the president's mind as it pertains to the policy agenda." His tenure has already been marked by aggressive budget cuts and deregulation efforts.
Recently, the White House has been implementing controversial personnel policies, with press secretary Karoline Leavitt reporting that approximately 40,000 federal workers had accepted resignation offers. A federal judge has since blocked the Office of Personnel Management from enforcing resignation deadlines.
Before his current appointment, Vought served in the first Trump administration as OMB Director from July 2020 after previously holding Deputy Director and Acting Director positions. Between Trump administrations, he founded two pro-Trump groups focused on curtailing diversity, equity, and inclusion programs.
With his confirmation, Vought now wields significant influence over federal spending, regulatory decisions, and the implementation of the president's policy agenda across executive branch agencies. His approach to budgeting and regulatory oversight continues to be a focal point of political debate in Washington.
