Here’s how GA’s representatives voted on resolution to strip Marjorie Taylor Greene from her committees

ATLANTA — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene was kicked off both of her committees Thursday after a vote of the total House of Representative.

Greene, a freshman member from Georgia’s 14th Congressional District, has a long record of making incendiary remarks ranging from allegedly supporting violence against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Democrats, to spreading baseless claims that mass school shootings were staged.

Eleven Republicans joined 219 Democrats in backing Greene’s ejection from her committees, while 199 GOP lawmakers voted “no.”
