From critical to Trump's biggest supporter! The president-elect offers
Elise Stefanik

President-elect Donald Trump has offered Republican Elise Stefanik the job as US ambassador to the United Nations, two familiar sources told CNN on Sunday.

The New York congresswoman, the fourth-ranking Republican in the House of Representatives, has been a staunch ally of the president-elect.

The chairwoman of the House Republican Conference has been one of Trump's staunchest supporters in Congress for years. Her aggressive stance during his 2019 impeachment hearings made her a "Republican star," as Trump himself said at the time. And again she rallied for Trump after his 2020 loss, when she opposed the certification of President Joe Biden's victory in the House of Representatives and promoted Trump's claims of election fraud.

But she wasn't always Trump's biggest fan: The New York Republican, who was the youngest woman ever elected to Congress at the time of her first victory in 2014, voted against Trump's tax plan in 2017.

Once a Trump skeptic and occasionally outspoken critic during his 2016 presidential campaign and early days of his presidency, she shifted from critic to defender, a move she explained was partly due to Trump's popularity. in her upstate New York neighborhood.

As Trump sought the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, she was among a handful of potential contenders, a role she openly embraced. She also told CNN earlier this year that she is "proud to be a senior surrogate" and would "proudly serve in a future Trump administration."

Stefanik is a member of the Armed Services Committee and the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, among other committees. Stefanik made headlines last year with her campaign to oust college leaders who failed to adequately denounce anti-Semitism during a House hearing on the issue.

Meanwhile, Trump said Saturday in a social media post that he "will not invite" Nikki Haley, who served as UN ambassador in his first administration. Haley, the former governor of South Carolina, later ran a fierce primary campaign against Trump.
