Top GOP senator needs to know more about Trump's UN pick

WASHINGTON — A leading Republican senator on foreign policy issues says he doesn't yet know whether President Donald Trump's pick to be U.N. ambassador has the expertise and background to capably handle the job.

Trump wants former Fox News reporter and current State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert (NOW'-urt) to replace Nikki Haley as ambassador. Nauert had little foreign policy experience before taking the State Department post.
