Opposition Reaction
Democratic lawmaker AOC, that frequently disagreed with Greene, questioned the congresswoman's record on health policy and claimed the resignation timing appeared strategically orchestrated to coincide with her pension eligibility.

Republican Responses

Rather, the congresswoman follows former opponents such as Wyoming's Cheney, Tennessee's Corker, Arizona's Flake plus Illinois's Kinzinger by choosing the exit.
Career Developments
