Marjorie Taylor Greene: judge mulls move to bar Republican from Congress

Judge to rule on challenge from Georgia voters that says far right congresswoman should be disqualified under the 14th amendment

A federal judge has indicated that an attempt to stop the far-right Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene running for re-election will be allowed to proceed.

The challenge from a group of Georgia voters says Greene should be disqualified under the 14th amendment to the US constitution, because she supported insurrectionists who attacked the US Capitol on 6 January 2021.
