Elise Stefanik Clashes with House GOP Over Election Security Provisions

Elise Stefanik, once nominated by President Donald Trump as United States Representative to the United Nations, has made headlines this week for a heated clash with House Speaker Mike Johnson. According to The Hill, Stefanik accused Johnson of torpedoing the Republican agenda by blocking her provision in the must-pass National Defense Authorization Act. This measure would require congressional notification for counterintelligence investigations into federal candidates, aimed at preventing what she calls deep state weaponization against elections.

Stefanik, now chair of House Republican leadership after Trump withdrew her United Nations nomination earlier this year over House majority concerns, took to social media on Monday. She declared the deep state alive and well, claiming Johnson sided with Democrats like Jamie Raskin to strike the provision from the bill. A response to past probes like Crossfire Hurricane into Trump's 2016 campaign and Jack Smith's Arctic Frost investigation into 2020 election efforts, the language had passed the House Intelligence Committee in September. Stefanik vowed a hard no on the defense bill without it, stating on X that a provision approved in committee deserves a floor vote, not removal in closed-door talks.

Johnson pushed back during a Tuesday press conference, denying involvement and saying the issue never reached him. He texted Stefanik, offering to help, and noted typical negotiations need agreement from House and Senate committee leaders. Stefanik fired back online, calling his words lies and his tactic to dodge when caught undermining Republicans. Fox News reports this as part of erupting House GOP tensions, with allies like Representatives Anna Paulina Luna and Marjorie Taylor Greene echoing her stance and threatening no votes on the bill.

Politico notes Stefanik, eyeing a New York governor run, also addressed party rifts over antisemitism. Her campaign condemned white supremacist Nick Fuentes, affirming no place for him in the Republican Party amid a Manhattan gala controversy hosted by the New York Young Republican Club, where she once donated.

These intraparty battles highlight Stefanik's aggressive push on Trump priorities amid year-end legislative fights.
