VP Vance's Busy Schedule: From Capitol Hill to South Carolina, India, and the Vatican

  • Resumen

  • JD Vance BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    Vice President JD Vance has maintained a busy schedule in recent days. On Tuesday, April 29, he met with Senate Republicans during their weekly policy lunch on Capitol Hill, as they returned from a two-week recess to work on a sweeping tax, border, energy and defense bill, including potential cuts to Medicaid and safety net programs.

    Looking ahead, Vance will visit South Carolina this Thursday, May 1, where he and an unnamed official will tour Nucor Steel's manufacturing facility in Huger. While this visit is officially non-political, political observers note its significance as South Carolina hosts the "First in the South" presidential primary for 2028. Early polling positions Vance as the frontrunner for the 2028 Republican nomination, though his approval ratings currently show 46.9% viewing him unfavorably compared to 41.7% favorably.

    Last week, Vance traveled internationally, delivering remarks on US-India relations in Jaipur, India on April 22, part of a trip spanning April 18-24 that included stops in both India and Italy.

    During his Italian visit over Easter, Vance had a brief private meeting with Pope Francis at Casa Santa Marta on Easter Sunday morning. The Holy See Press Office reported they exchanged Easter greetings. A day earlier, Vance met with Cardinal Secretary of State Pietro Parolin and Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher, discussing religious freedom and international situations, particularly regarding countries affected by war and humanitarian crises. Vance and his family also attended Good Friday services at St. Peter's Basilica.

    Earlier this year, Vance made history as the first vice president to speak at the March for Life in Washington DC on January 24, marking his first public appearance in his new role. March for Life leadership called this "a sign of his commitment to standing up for life."

    The Catholic vice president has been building his profile through these appearances, balancing domestic policy work with international diplomacy and religious outreach, potentially positioning himself for future political ambitions as suggested by his early visit to a key primary state.
