Ronna McDaniel, chairwoman of the Republican National Committee, will step down from her position on March 8, she announced Monday morning.

“Some of my proudest accomplishments include firing Nancy Pelosi, winning the popular vote in 2022, creating an Election Integrity Department, building the committee’s first small dollar grassroots donor program, strengthening our state parties through our Growing Republican Organizations to Win program, expanding the Party through minority outreach at our community centers, and launching Bank Your Vote to get Republicans to commit to voting early,” McDaniel said in a statement.

Her decision, first reported by the New York Times, comes two weeks after former president Donald Trump endorsed North Carolina GOP chairman Michael Whatley to lead the RNC alongside his daughter-in-law Lara Trump. The likely presidential nominee and other Republicans such as Vivek Ramaswamy have publicly criticized McDaniel for her leadership at the RNC, citing the GOP’s underwhelming performance in the 2022 midterm elections.

In her statement, McDaniel said she would step aside “to allow our nominee to select a Chair of their choosing,” she added, noting the practice is rooted in historical precedent. “The RNC has historically undergone change once we have a nominee and it has always been my intention to honor that tradition.”

She will resign from her post at the end of next week at the RNC Spring Training in Houston, Texas.
