The White House will withdraw the nomination of Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) to be the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Punchbowl News reports.
The Trump administration has grown concerned about the tight GOP margin in the House. A special election in Florida next week for former Rep. Michael Waltz’s (R-FL) seat is closer than expected, adding urgency to the matter.
One source said Stefanik is in line to get a high-profile position later on in the Trump administration.
