The number of Republican women in the House has tripled to a record 36, including two nonvoting members.
Others involved in the effort to boost GOP women are also hopeful they can reach a new milestone this year.
The number of House candidates has dropped overall since 2022, a redistricting year that brought a surge of new candidates.
The Center for Women and Politics found the steepest drop was among Republican women.
For Stefanik, the effort to recruit more GOP women to run for the House has been a resounding success.
