A member of the United States House of Representatives, Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, has announced she will resign from Congress after a clash with President Donald Trump.

The development is the climax of her disagreement with Trump and the Republicans, as she maintained a hardline stance during the longest government shutdown in the nation’s history.

In a statement Friday night, Green said she opposed her party for refusing to pass a plan to save American healthcare and protect Americans from “outrageous overpriced and unaffordable health insurance policies.”

The congresswoman decried how America was “forced fed disgusting political drama once again from both sides of the aisle,” instead of the House remaining in session to fix the “disaster.”

Green, who had slammed Speaker Mike Johnson for closing the House during the shutdown, accused him of sidelining bills by most members of Congress: “The Speaker never brings them to the floor for a vote.”

She said her efforts led to the impeachment of Biden’s Secretary of Homeland over the “dangerous open border invasion into America,” and the defund of “the corrupt USAID” when she served as DOGE Subcommittee Chair.

Stressing that she fought harder than most GOP members to elect Trump, Greene noted: “most of the Establishment Republicans, who secretly hate him and who stabbed him in the back, have all been welcomed.”

In recent weeks, she repeatedly criticized the Trump administration for focusing on foreign policy rather than pressing issues at home and was vocal about the release of the Epstein files.

Aligning with three other House Republicans, Greene joined the Democrats to force a vote on a bill ordering the release of documents on Epstein, an action which further infuriated Trump and his loyalists.

President Trump responded by calling her a “traitor”, “ranting lunatic,” and a “disgrace” to the Republican Party. He also mocked her name, writing “Green grass turns Brown when it begins to rot.”

Reacting to Greene’s announcement, Georgia GOP Chairman Josh McKoon called the lawmaker “a tireless fighter” for America First principles, conservative values, and holding the establishment accountable.

In a post on X, McKoon said while her decision to step down from Congress comes as a surprise amid recent challenges, Greene’s legacy as a bold voice for the grassroots will endure.

Noting that the people of Georgia’s 14th District deserve strong representation, the politician assured the party will ensure a conservative warrior fills the seat through the upcoming special election.”
