Northwest Georgia’s political landscape is shifting as Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene prepares to step down from her seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. Greene announced she will resign effective January 5, 2026, a move that will trigger a special election to fill the remainder of her term.
State Senator Colton Moore, who represents Chattooga, Walker, Dade, Catoosa, and a portion of Floyd County in the Georgia General Assembly, says he is showing “strong interest” in running for the now-open U.S. House seat in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District.
A new email scam promising a free Thanksgiving meal from Costco is circulating nationwide, and officials warn that Chattooga County residents should be on alert. The message, which appears to come from Costco, offers an “exclusive gourmet Thanksgiving turkey dinner” in exchange for completing a short survey.
