Rep. Elise Stefanik, the No. 4 House Republican and a staunch ally of President-elect Donald Trump, has been chosen to be U.N. ambassador in his next administration.
Trump announced his pick in a statement to The New York Post.
“I am honored to nominate Chairwoman Elise Stefanik to serve in my Cabinet as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations,” Trump said. “Elise is an incredibly strong, tough, and smart America First fighter.”
Stefanik, 40, represents a safely Republican upstate New York district and was a common fixture on the campaign trail for Trump in 2024. She served as House Republicans conference chair the last two years.
She won accolades for her aggressive fight against antisemitism on college campuses, including her pressure to force out two Ivy League presidents.
