[Ainsley Earhart]

Loyalty should be a two, two way street and we should be able to vote our conscience and represent our district's interests because our job title is literally representative.

[Kevin Cork]

Recently, President Trump branded Green, who's been a rep in Georgia since 2021, as a traitor. He said he would endorse a challenger against her next year, which of course doesn't matter now because she won't be running.
