Senate Republicans have elected John Thune as Senate Majority Leader, positioning him to lead the GOP in advancing President-elect Trump's agenda in the 119th Congress.
"I am extremely honored to have earned the support of my colleagues to lead the Senate in the 119th Congress, and I am beyond proud of the work we have done to secure our majority and the White House," Thune said.
Thune is seen as a viable candidate with strong support within the GOP, paving the way for renewed efforts on Trump's tax cuts and legislative priorities.
The first order of business for Thune in the new Congress will be confirming Trump's Cabinet nominees, indicating a swift alignment with the incoming administration's goals.
