JUST IN - Trump names New York Rep. Elise Stefanik US ambassador to UN: US media

[Steely Tom]

So we lose a seat in the House?

[FlingWingFlyer]

Do we really need an ambassador to the U.N.? Why not just boot their keisters out of our country? They are the greatest danger to American sovereignty.

Safe seat in a conservative district of upstate New York.
Not all of New York State is far left like New York City.

[Repeal The 17th]

Says who?

[Sacajaweau]

Gets her into the International Market Place. We don’t know what she wants out of life. We’ll see.

[Ex gun maker.]

Concensus of an earlier thread seemed to be that she should remain in the house.
Is there some reason we have to give up a good Rep. or Sen. to appoint an ambassador?

[jimtorr]

Safe seat, sure, but Gov Hochul gets to appoint a dem replacement.

[Fungi]

Obozo gave the UN 600million with no authority to do so. Stop the madness and stop funding this worthless body. Turn the building into a hotel and boot them out of the US. Stop this insanity.

Are you sure about that? I suspect it would trigger a special election, leaving the seat open until that happened. So, if the House is 218-217 GOP, they can't make this move. If the House were 222-213 GOP and Stefanik really wanted the UN position, fine. Seems like a waste of talent.

[SmokingJoe]

For a short period. Republicans are ahead +2 in the House so far.

[The Unknown Republican]

Nope, a special election is required: https://ballotpedia.org/Filling_vacancies_in_the_U.S._House_of_Representatives

Safe seat, sure, but Gov Hochul gets to appoint a dem replacement.

It normally takes about six months to set up a special election, so yeah, the Republicans just lost a seat in the House. Nothing good comes from the UN.

[SmokingJoe]

Not 218 -217.

[Gene Eric]

>> so yeah, the Republicans just lost a seat in the House

that may not be a fact
