Vice President JD Vance said Monday during an appearance in Missouri that congressional Democrats are more focused on serving illegal immigrants and fraudsters than voters. Vance, the Republican National Committee finance chairman, has taken a leadership role in boosting Republican candidates ahead of the 2026 elections.

His Monday trip included a closed-door lunchtime fundraiser for Republicans and remarks at a Milbank Manufacturing plant in the afternoon.

Speaking at the Milbank event, the vice president lauded sitting Republicans for passing the Working Families Tax Cut and fighting to lower costs for households before turning his sights on Democrats. ," Vance said. "It’s not just that they want higher taxes, though they do.

It’s not just that they voted against the working families tax cut, though they did. It’s not just that they empowered the criminals, which is why we saw such high murder rates under Joe Biden’s leadership. " "What makes them passionate?

What really gets them fired up? Listen to them talk. What makes them yell and scream and holler is illegal aliens. If you actually ask, if you actually judge them not by what they say, but by what they do and their emotions, what they reveal to you is that they believe they exist on this earth — they believe their jobs exist in Washington, D.C.
