Effort to Remove Greene From Ballot Can Proceed

“A federal judge cleared the way on Monday for a group of Georgia voters to move forward with legal efforts seeking to disqualify Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene from running for re-election to Congress, citing her role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol,” the New York Times reports.

“The disqualification effort is based on a constitutional provision adopted after the Civil War that barred members of the Confederacy from holding office.”

“It mirrors several other cases involving Republican members of Congress, whose roles leading up to and during the deadly riot have drawn intense criticism.”
