Rep. Elise Stefanik was chosen by President-elect Donald Trump to serve as the United States ambassador to the UN.
It gives me great pleasure to propose Chairwoman Elise Stefanik to be the U.S. Ambassador to the UN and a member of my Cabinet. Trump noted that Elise is an America First fighter who is exceptionally strong, tough, and intelligent.
Last week, Republican congresswoman Stefanik, who represents the 21st District of New York, was elected to her sixth term in the House. She will take over a position that Nikki Haley had in the first Trump administration for two years.
