Noteworthy events
Possible 2024 Republican vice presidential nominee
- See also: Vice presidential candidates, 2024
Media reports have discussed Greene as a possible Republican vice presidential candidate.[38] Former President Donald Trump (R) became the presumptive Republican presidential nominee on March 12, 2024, and is expected to select a running mate ahead of the 2024 Republican National Convention (RNC), which will take place from July 15 to 18.
In 2020, President Joe Biden (D) announced Vice President Kamala Harris (D) as his running mate six days before the start of the Democratic National Convention (DNC). In 2016, both Hillary Clinton (D) and Trump announced their running mates three days before the DNC and RNC, respectively.
Removed from committee assignments (February 2021)
On February 4, 2021, the House of Representatives voted 230-199 to remove Greene from her assignments on the Labor and the Budget and Education committees.[39] The vote was a response to multiple controversial remarks made by the first-term lawmaker, including a claim that school shootings are staged events. The House Rules Committee voted to advance the resolution on February 3 after Republican leadership declined to take action on her comments.[40][41]
Before the vote, Greene addressed the House floor. “These were words of the past and these things do not represent me, they do not represent my district, and they do not represent my values,” she said.[39] Greene also apologized to her Republican colleagues during a closed-door meeting the previous day.[42]
Electoral vote certification on January 6-7, 2021
Congress convened a joint session on January 6-7, 2021, to count electoral votes by state and confirm the results of the 2020 presidential election. Greene voted against certifying the electoral votes from Arizona and Pennsylvania. The House rejected both objections by a vote of 121-303 for Arizona and 138-282 for Pennsylvania.
June 17, 2020: Republican leadership condemned remarks
In June 2020, after a Politico investigation resurfaced what it described as "Facebook videos in which [Greene] expresses racist, Islamophobic and anti-Semitic views," House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), House Republican Conference Chairwoman Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), and National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) Chairman Tom Emmer (R-Minn.) condemned Greene's remarks, with a spokesman for the NRCC saying the Chairman is "personally disgusted by this rhetoric and condemns it in the strongest possible terms."[43] Greene responded to the criticism in a July 19 debate, saying: "I think you're aware that if you're a Republican and you are unapologetically conservative like I am, you're going to see people like me called a racist even when it's very unwarranted."[44]
