U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) released this statement on U.S. Ambassador to United Nations Nikki Haley.

“Ambassador Haley has done an outstanding job as United States Ambassador to the United Nations and showed a level of effectiveness rarely seen by someone in this position.

“She is a clear, concise voice for American leadership, American values, and has been a true agent of reform when it came to the United Nations.

“I know all South Carolinians are proud of the service she rendered to our nation and the Trump Administration. 

“Nikki Haley has a very bright future and will be a key player in both the future of the Republican Party and our nation as a whole for years to come.”

Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) also released the following statement on the resignation of Ambassador Nikki Haley from the United States Mission to the United Nations:

"Ambassador Haley has been a trailblazer ever since she was Governor of our home state of South Carolina. Her seamless transition from the Governor’s Office to the United Nations is a testament to her undaunted love for our country. She has been an invaluable asset to the administration strengthening our ties abroad, a strong voice for the voiceless, and a fighter for human rights. Thank you for your service, Ambassador.”
