Rep. Elise Stefanik is set for a confirmation hearing Tuesday to become the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Her lack of foreign policy experience and strong backing of Israel are anticipated points of contention. A Harvard graduate and a significant figure in the House, she began her career as a moderate Republican but evolved into one of President Trump’s key supporters. During her hearing with the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, she will likely address critical global issues on the U.N. agenda, including conflicts in Gaza, Ukraine, and the Iranian nuclear program.
Stefanik is likely to face scrutiny regarding her foreign policy experience and strong support for Israel during her confirmation hearing to become the U.S. ambassador to the U.N.
As an elected Congresswoman since 2015, Stefanik has transitioned from a moderate Republican to a prominent ally of President Trump, raising questions about her diplomatic approach.
