Russell Vought, President Donald Trump's nominee to lead the Office of Management and Budget, promised to help American taxpayers while undergoing a contentious confirmation hearing on Wednesday.

WASHINGTON (TNND) — President Donald Trump wants Russell Vought to return to the White House and serve as director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) once again. Vought was the acting OMB director during the final two years of Trump's first administration.

Russell Vought, President Donald Trump’s nominee for director of the Office of Management and Budget, will testify before Congress for the second time. Since the first, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) met with Vought and released a statement disagreeing with the nomination.

Republicans will be able to win approval of President Trump’s top picks if they remain united, but they are frustrated by Democratic tactics.

Senate Republicans are trudging through the process to confirm President Trump's nominees as Democrats push back on their speedy approval.
