Marjorie Taylor Greene Skips All House Votes as January Resignation Nears

Her absence tightens a narrow GOP majority as year-end votes approach.

Overview

  • Greene has missed all nine roll-call votes taken this week since the House returned from the Thanksgiving recess.
  • Republicans voiced disappointment over the no-shows, with Rep. Andy Harris saying she should finish her term and others lamenting the strain on the conference.
  • Leaders now have even less room to maneuver on priorities such as government funding and the annual defense policy bill, according to GOP members.
  • While away from Washington, Greene appeared in her district at a Murray County hearing to oppose a proposed bio-waste facility, saying she attended in her official capacity.
  • She set Jan. 5 as her resignation date after a public break with President Trump over policy disputes and her push to force release of Epstein-related records.
