Quick Summary

A Republican group called American Ascent was launched on Monday by Ryan Neuhaus, former chief of staff at the Heritage Foundation, with the goal of reclaiming congressional seats for conservatives in the 2028 elections. Although not officially linked to Vice President JD Vance, who is expected to run for president in 2028, the group collaborates with Turning Point Action and the Claremont Institute, both of which have expressed support for Vance's potential candidacy.
