President-elect Donald Trump has announced three more members of his White House team, including a senior aide to Sen. JD Vance who will work with Congress to push the administration’s agenda.
James Braid, Vance’s deputy chief of staff, will serve as director of the Office of Legislative Affairs, Trump said in a statement Monday.
His appointment was announced alongside that of Matt Brasseaux to serve as director of the Office of Political Affairs and Alex Latcham as director of the Office of Public Liaison.
Trump has filled nearly all of the members of his Cabinet in the three weeks since he won reelection.
Braid’s role will be crucial to the extension of tax cuts and other key pieces of the Trump administration’s agenda. He worked for the Office of Management and Budget in the first term.
Brasseaux was deputy political director for Trump’s 2024 campaign. He also served as a regional political director for the Republican National Committee and as campaign manager for Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo.
Latcham was a deputy political director during the first Trump administration. He has been an aide to Trump for the past eight years and served as the campaign’s deputy political director.
