After Marjorie Taylor Greene announced she would resign from Congress, President Donald Trump said he would like to see her return to politics. The report also outlines the potential timing and process for filling her seat.
Trump told NBC News that it would not be easy for Greene to revive her political career, but said he would like to see her do so. He had also posted that Greene resigned to avoid facing a Trump-endorsed challenger. Greene said her decision stemmed from disillusionment with the political climate after a recent split with Trump.
Greene’s announced resignation date is Jan. 5, 2026. The article reports that a special election could take place in March, while Georgia’s regular primaries are scheduled for May 19; Gov. Brian Kemp would set the special-election date. Rep. Thomas Massie expressed sadness at Greene’s departure and said they had fought to release the Epstein files.
