US EditionGreene's Resignation Could Lead to 'Dominoes Falling' Under Gold Dome
Greene cited Congress's irrelevance due to shutdowns and executive dominance; her exit lowers GOP seats to 218, tightening Speaker Johnson's control amid a competitive special election.
- On November 25, 2025, Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene announced in a video and resignation letter last week that she will resign on Jan. 5, prompting Gov. Brian Kemp to call a special election.

- With Greene gone, the House majority stands at 219 Republicans to 213 Democrats, and losing Greene would reduce GOP to 218, making legislative work harder for the GOP.

- If Democrats win on December 2, their House caucus would grow to 216 members as outside groups spent $4 million and Democratic nominee Aftyn Behn raised $1.2 million in Tennessee's seventh congressional district.
