Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the newly elected governor of Arkansas and former President Donald Trump’s onetime press secretary, will be thrust into the national spotlight Tuesday night when she gives the Republican response to President Biden’s State of the Union. But the selection came with the backing of Congress’s top Republican leaders — House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell — and will give Sanders a chance to solidify her national profile.announcing her rebuttal, Sanders said she was “grateful for this opportunity to address the nation and contrast the GOP’s optimistic vision for the future against the failures of President Biden and the Democrats.
“We are ready to begin a new chapter in the story of America — to be written by a new generation of leaders ready to defend our freedom against the radical left and expand access to quality education, jobs, and opportunity for all,” she added. Sanders served as the second of Trump’s four press secretaries during his term, holding the podium for nearly two years beginning in July 2017. She announced her campaign for governor in January 2021 and cruised to victory, winning with 83% in the primary against radio host Doc Washburn and defeating Democrat Chris Jones by nearly 30 points in November’s general election.Sanders is the first female governor in Arkansas history. At age 40, she is also the youngest governor in the country.
