Rep. Elise Stefanik’s (R-N.Y.) nomination to serve as ambassador to the United Nations is facing fresh uncertainty as the Trump administration weighs the risks of further whittling down the Republican majority in the House.

A source familiar with the matter said the situation was fluid and that no decisions had been made about whether to pull Stefanik’s nomination or have her withdraw. The discussions about her role stem from concerns about whether Republicans can pass President Trump’s sprawling legislative agenda through the House with little room for any defections.

CBS News first reported Stefanik’s nomination was in jeopardy and that administration officials were set to discuss her fate Thursday.

The White House did not respond to a request for comment about Stefanik’s status or any ongoing discussions.
