Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia announced Monday that she will not endorse any candidate in the special election to fill her congressional seat following her upcoming resignation.

Greene made the statement in a post on X, noting that she wants voters in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District to make the decision without her involvement, as reported by Fox News.

“Looking ahead towards the Special Election for my Congressional seat, I will not be endorsing anyone out of respect to my district. I truly support the wonderful people of Georgia 14 and want them to pick their Representative. So anyone claiming they have my endorsement would not be telling the truth,” Greene wrote.

She was re-elected last year, meaning her resignation will take place well before the end of her current term, which was scheduled to run through early 2027.

Her departure follows public criticism from President Donald Trump, who targeted Greene on Truth Social both before and after she announced her resignation. In recent posts, Trump referred to her as “Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Brown.”

In her Monday post, Greene addressed the ongoing commentary. She described “Smears, lies, attacks, and name-calling” as “childish behavior, divisive, and bad for our country.”

Greene also dismissed speculation that she plans to run for president. In another post on X, she outlined her reasons for rejecting the idea.

“Running for President requires traveling all over the country, begging for donations all day everyday to raise hundreds of millions of dollars, arguing political talking points everyday to the point of exhaustion, destroying your health and having no personal life in order to attempt to get enough votes to become President all to go to work into a system that refuses to fix any of America’s problems,” she wrote.

She added that the demands of a presidential campaign and the limitations of the office reinforced her decision.

“The fact that I’d have to go through all that but would be totally blocked from truly fixing anything is exactly why I would never do it. And most importantly, I’m not the kind of person who is willing to make the deals that must be made in order to be allowed to have the title,” Greene wrote.

A special election will be held next year to choose her successor. Greene reiterated that she will not participate in selecting a candidate.
