Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene announces her resignation from Congress, effective January 5, 2026, following a public fallout with President Donald Trump over policy disagreements.
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia has announced her resignation from Congress, effective January 5, 2026. This decision follows a public fallout with President Donald Trump, who recently withdrew his endorsement and labeled her a "traitor" after policy disagreements. Greene, once a staunch Trump ally, cited her support for releasing files related to Jeffrey Epstein and differences over foreign policy and healthcare as key points of contention. In her resignation statement, she expressed frustration with the political climate, stating that "loyalty should be a two-way street" and emphasizing her commitment to representing her district's interests. Greene's departure marks a significant shift within the Republican Party, highlighting internal divisions ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. The governor of Georgia is expected to call a special election to fill her seat in the 14th congressional district.
