More GOP reps side with Democrats against Marjorie Taylor Greene House protest motion

A growing number of Republicans are siding with Democrats against Marjorie Taylor Greene’s repeated attempts to adjourn the US House of Representatives.

For the third time in six days, the Georgia representative has forced members to return to the floor of the House to cast votes as to whether the lower chamber of Congress should adjourn.

Ms Greene requested the adjournment in protest at the House taking up the Democrats’ election and police reform bills this week.

“I rise today to inform Democrats the radical path you’re taking will cause you to lose in 2022," she said, also calling the $1.9 trillion Covid-19 relief bill “shameful” and claiming that the police were being put on Joe Biden’s “hit list”.
