Democrats to Block Greene's March Motion to Oust Speaker Johnson Amid His Commitment to Role
Apr 30, 2024, 07:38 PM
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) has intensified her efforts to remove House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) from his position, despite facing limited support from her GOP colleagues. Greene's resolution to call a vote to oust Johnson, introduced in late March, has been met with significant opposition from House Democratic leaders, who have pledged to block the motion and ensure Johnson retains his speakership. This Democratic support comes as a response to Greene's accusations of Johnson making compromises with Democrats, which she perceives as betrayals of conservative values. Johnson responded by emphasizing the necessity of doing what he believes is right for a functioning Congress. The Democrats have also stated that upon completion of their national security work, they will vote to table Greene's motion. The situation has escalated tensions within the House, highlighting deep partisan divides and the challenges Johnson faces in maintaining his leadership role.
