Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) will move forward with plans to force a confidence vote on Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) despite assurances from Democratic leaders to step in to block the effort should it come to the House floor. 

Greene will call the motion forward next week, putting a notice on the legislation that would require GOP leaders to bring it to the floor within two legislative days, the Georgia Republican announced on Wednesday. Such a move would tee up the motion for a vote when lawmakers return next week.
