SCDP CHAIR STATEMENT ON GOVERNOR NIKKI HALEY’S NOMINATION AS UN AMBASSADOR
Columbia, SC – South Carolina Democratic Party Chair Jaime Harrison released the following statement on President-elect Trump’s nomination of Governor Nikki Haley to serve as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations:
“I congratulate Governor Haley on her appointment as our next Ambassador to the UN. I must note with concern, however, that every single previous UN Ambassador came to the job with previous foreign policy experience, which Governor Haley lacks. I hope the Governor is a quick study because as one of the nation’s top diplomats, she will have the critical task of dealing in real time with virtually every international crisis that arises. For all of our sakes, I wish her great success!”
