South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley was confirmed by the United States Senate on Tuesday to be the next Ambassador to the United Nations. Haley was confirmed by a 96-4 vote.
Earlier on Tuesday, the Senate's Foreign Relations Committee gave its approval to confirm Haley to the UN post.
Haley's confirmation comes just weeks after a GOP representative proposed a bill for the United States to withdraw from the United Nations. The intergovernmental organization has 193 member states.
