Sen. J.D. Vance Advocates for Adopting Elements of Orbán's University Policies

Vance suggests U.S. could benefit from Hungary's approach to curbing perceived left-wing bias in academic institutions.

Vance argues American universities are dominated by left-wing foundations and not accountable to taxpayers.
He believes taxpayers should have a say in how their money is spent on higher education.
Vance praises Orbán's model of transferring control of universities to foundations run by political allies.
He clarifies he does not endorse all of Orbán's policies but sees value in some of his decisions.
Vance's comments come as he is considered a potential running mate for Donald Trump in the 2024 election.
