Rep. Lisa McClain, R-Mich., has officially announced her candidacy to lead the Republican conference in the next congress. This decision comes after the current chair, Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., was nominated for a top Trump administration role as ambassador to the United Nations.
In her statement, McClain expressed her belief that the modern Republican Party embodies the values of her home state of Michigan and has been instrumental in securing Republican victories in the White House, Senate, and House majority. She emphasized her personal journey from working on a horse farm to building a successful company with billions of assets under management as a testament to the American dream.
