2:00Now PlayingJ.D. Vance was sworn in Monday as vice president, the country's first millennial vice president and among the youngest to hold the office.
The oath of office was administered by Supreme Court Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Vance was joined by his wife and three children and his mother, and used a bible gifted to him by his great-grandmother.
The inauguration ceremony, including the swearings-in, is taking place indoors this year, a last-minute change to the pomp and circumstance due to extreme cold forecasted for the nation’s capital.
When Trump returns to the White House on Monday, he’s expected to act quickly on his campaign promises and roll back his predecessor’s policies. As his second term begins, his party controls both chambers of Congress and conservative justices have a majority on the Supreme Court. Trump is only the second president to return to office in non-consecutive terms, the only president convicted of a felony and the oldest person to win election to the White House.
