Vought was named policy director of the Republican National Committee platform committee in May 2024.

Vought identifies as a Christian nationalist who seeks to infuse the government and society with elements of Christianity while having "a commitment to an institutional separation between church and state, but not the separation of Christianity from its influence on government and society,"

Vought was born to Thurlow Bunyea Vought, a US marine veteran and Margaret Flowers Vought, an elementary school teacher. He earned his Bachelor of Arts from Wheaton College and his Juris Doctor from the George Washington University Law School.
