Washington, D.C. – Today Representative Dina Titus of Nevada’s First Congressional District released the following statement after becoming an original co-sponsor of the resolution to expel Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene from Congress:

“Congresswoman Greene has encouraged executing politicians who disagree with her,” said Congresswoman Titus (NV-1). “Her presence on the House floor is a legitimate security concern. She made the deranged allegation that 1 October – the darkest day in our city’s history – was a government plot. The victims’ families, the survivors, and our first responders deserve far better than having that vile ignorance spewed in the halls of Congress. She has openly embraced similarly disgraceful conspiracy theories about September 11th and the Parkland school shooting. 

“I did not make this decision lightly. In my ten years of public service in the U.S. House of Representatives, I have never called for the removal of anyone from Congress. This time is different.”

The text of the resolution states:

In the Matter of Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Resolved, That pursuant to article I, section 5, clause 2 of the United States Constitution, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, be, and she hereby is, expelled from the House of Representatives.
