 I'm Mel Bridges. Ohio Senator J.D. Vance is scheduled to speak at the Republican National Convention tonight after being picked as former President Donald Trump's running mate in the 2024 presidential race. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson says Vance was a great VP pick and has a lot of things going for him. You know, he comes from humble beginnings. He's regarded as one of the most thoughtful senators in Congress. Vance is the first millennial to be on a major party ticket, LRN.
