MTG hard-pressed to find support for motion to vacate Johnson

Published March 22, 2024 6:42pm ET



Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) was met with mixed reactions from her own party after she filed a motion to vacate Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA).

The majority of members’ reactions were disapproving of Greene, which was to be expected because she has not named supporters. Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO), who helped oust Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) last October, is set to retire on Friday and will not be able to participate this time around.
