Vice President JD Vance has emerged as an essential force in getting President Donald Trump’s legislative agenda across the finish line.

To date, the millennial veep has cast seven tiebreaking votes in his capacity as president of the Senate in support of the Trump administration’s priorities since the beginning of Trump’s second term. 

This past week, the vice president broke two ties related to procedural votes for the rescissions package. That was due to Republican Sens. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, and Susan Collins of Maine, who sided with all Democrats and two nominal independents in opposing the bill.
