Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., questioned Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., on Tuesday in her confirmation hearing for ambassador to the U.N.
Stefanik appeared before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee the morning after President Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th president.
Stefanik, a loyal Trump ally, is chair of the House Republican Conference, and was the youngest woman ever elected to Congress when she won her seat in 2014. While she has little foreign policy experience, Stefanik has been vocal about Israel and its war with Hamas. She has called for a “complete reassessment” of the U.S.’s funding for the U.N.
