Sanders, who served as White House press secretary during a portion of President Donald Trump’s term, was sworn in as governor last month — she is the daughter of former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who announced a presidential bid in 2015 but dropped out in 2016.
“Americans are still struggling from inflation, a border crisis, record crime, and a failing school system. As House Republicans work to fix these problems in Congress with our Commitment to America, Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders is addressing them head on with her conservative agenda outside of Washington,” House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said. “She is a servant-leader of true determination and conviction. I’m thrilled Sarah will share her extraordinary story and bold vision for a better America on Tuesday. Everyone, including President Biden, should listen carefully.”
Last year, Sanders announced that she had her thyroid removed due to cancer.
“Today, I underwent a successful surgery to remove my thyroid and surrounding lymph nodes and by the grace of God I am now cancer-free,” Sanders said in a September statement.
