WASHINGTON — The Senate on Friday approved former White House national security adviser Mike Waltz to serve as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, ending a nine-month ordeal where the U.S. was without a permanent representative to the organization. The vote likely will allow Waltz to participate in next week's U.N. General Assembly in New York, easing earlier concerns he wouldn't be confirmed in time. President Donald Trump is expected to deliver remarks at the annual gathering on Tuesday.
