Fox News Digital has learned that the funds will be used to help Republicans to keep the House and Senate majorities.
Republicans currently control the House with a 220-215 majority, and control the Senate with a 53-47.
Sources say the funds will also be used for whatever the president deems "necessary and appropriate."

In March, Vice President JD Vance was tapped to serve as the RNC Finance Chair—the first time in the history of the GOP that a sitting vice president served in the role.
Vance pledged to work to "fully enact the MAGA mandate" and grow the Republican majority in Congress in 2026.
