At his first fundraiser for the Republican National Committee on Monday night, Vice President JD Vance raised $2 million, according to a source familiar with the matter.
The fundraiser, held in New York City, marks the first time Vance has hosted an event for the RNC, and it was a pricey event. Couples who wanted to be on the “Host Committee” had to donate $250,000, and those on the level below had to give $100,000, according to Axios, who first reported the existence of the fundraiser.
In March, Vance was named the RNC’s finance chair, giving him another opportunity to connect with high-profile donors and raise money for the RNC ahead of a widely expected 2028 presidential bid.
