California Democratic Rep. Jimmy Gomez says Greene's "dangerous conduct warrants her immediate removal."Updated: March 19, 2021 - 2:17pmHouse Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Friday rejected an attempt by fellow chamber Democrats&nbsp;to remove&nbsp; Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene from Congress, amid their assertion&nbsp;the freshman GOP congresswoman has engaged in "dangerous conduct."The effort came in a resolution drafted by Democratic Rep. Jimmy Gomez and signed by 72 other House Democrats.Gomez, a California lawmaker, tweeted about the resolution: "Today, 72 of my&nbsp;&nbsp;colleagues and I took a stand against extremism and political violence.&nbsp;’s dangerous conduct warrants her immediate removal from the federal government.

"Members are very unhappy about what’s happened here. And they can express themselves the way they do. What Mr. Gomez did is his own view. And that is not a leadership position."&nbsp;in the resolution also&nbsp;wrote,&nbsp;"I believe some of my Republican colleagues, and one in particular, wish harm upon this legislative body."The statement is a&nbsp;likely reference to the&nbsp;Jan. 6 Capitol riot, in which some members of far-right groups to which Greene has been associated, participated in the siege.&nbsp;The Democrat-controlled House last month voted&nbsp;in favor of removing Greene from her posts&nbsp;on&nbsp;the chamber's&nbsp;Budget&nbsp;and Education and Labor committees –&nbsp;in response to&nbsp;social media posts and videos made before she was elected to Congress.
