Vice President JD Vance is coming to Miami Beach Wednesday. Expect traffic
Vice President JD Vance will be in Miami Beach for a private event Wednesday, sources confirmed to the Miami Herald.
Miami-Dade GOP party officials were alerted that Vance would be in town. The White House has not provided details about the vice president’s visit.
But the Secret Service warned residents that there will be road closures throughout the afternoon and evening on the Venetian Islands due to a “protective operation.” A Miami Beach police advisory sent Tuesday warned that a “hard closure will be in effect at Venetian Way and West San Marino Drive” from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m.
The Federal Aviation Administration also issued a VIP movement notification — an alert system for when top government officials are in the air — for Miami between 4 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. Wednesday.
Vance is also holding a private fundraiser in Naples earlier in the day, according to local news reports.
He was named the Republican National Committee’s finance chair last spring, tasked with carrying the party’s message to key conservative donors and helping the party raise funds ahead of the midterms.
