YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee made her opening statement Tuesday in the confirmation hearing for Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., to be President Donald Trump’s ambassador to the U.N.

Stefanik, a loyal ally to Trump, 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 UN.
