Vice President-elect Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) congratulated Miller on his new role, first reported by CNN.Miller is one of the leading voices behind Trump’s immigration plans — advocating for more restrictive policies — and served as a senior adviser on the topic in the first administration.

The new position as deputy chief of staff for policy would allow him to have a more expansive role in the White House, as he would be working under Chief of Staff Susie Wiles to ensure smooth operations in the West Wing.

Since leaving the White House, Miller launched the America First Legal Foundation, a conservative legal organization led by many former members of the Trump administration.
