Ohio Senator JD Vance officially resigned from the Senate ahead of being sworn in as vice president on January 20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vance, who has served in the Senate since early 2023, resigned around two years into his\u00a0six-year Senate term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I hereby resign my office as a United States Senator from the State of Ohio, effective January 10, 2025,” Vance said in the resignation letter to Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine that is circulating online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“As I prepare to assume my duties as Vice President of the United States, I would like to express that it has been a tremendous honor and privilege to serve the people of Ohio in the Senate over the past two years,” Vance added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sen.\u00a0Mike Lee (R-Utah) noted in a post on X that he “will really miss having” Vance as a Senate colleague.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Over the last two years, he\u2019s become a dear friend and trusted ally,” Lee noted. “But the Senate\u2019s loss is also the Senate\u2019s gain, as he is about to become the president of the Senate\u2014a job that belongs to the vice president.”<\/p>\n\n\n
\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
“To the people of Ohio, I extend my heartfelt gratitude for the privilege of representing you in the United States Senate. When I was elected to this office, I promised to never forget where I came from, and I\u2019ve made sure to live by that promise every single day,” Vance said in a statement about his Senate resignation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The American people have granted President Trump an undeniable mandate to put America first, both at home and abroad. Over the next four years, I will do all that I can to help President Trump enact his agenda. Together, we will make America stronger, safer, and more prosperous than ever before,” he added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
