Stefanik UN nomination sets off scramble for No. 4 leadership post

Published November 11, 2024 10:24am ET



Several House Republicans have already begun competing for GOP Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik’s (R-NY) leadership post when she steps down from her seat next year to accept an ambassadorship in the Trump administration.

At least three GOP lawmakers have begun fielding calls to their colleagues to gauge support for the party’s No. 4 position in the House, including Reps. Lisa McClain (R-MI), Kat Cammack (R-FL), and House GOP Vice Chairman Blake Moore (R-UT), several sources familiar confirmed to the Washington Examiner. Lawmakers began launching their bids Monday, the last day for lawmakers to announce their intent to run. Votes will take place later this week.
