Trump Taps Elise Stefanik for UN Ambassador Role

President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) as the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, highlighting her as a strong advocate for his "America First" foreign policy. Stefanik, a staunch Trump ally with limited diplomatic experience, is expected to be confirmed by the GOP-majority Senate. Her appointment could impact the narrow Republican majority in the House, as she vacates her seat to join the administration. Stefanik has been a prominent figure in the GOP, known for her defense of Trump and support for Israel.
