Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, champion of the January 6 rioters, has another passion besides defending the overthrow of the government: Not wearing a mask. In fact, she’s so committed to not wearing one that she’s lost almost a third of her annual salary over it.

Back in January, House Democrats voted to impose a fine of $500 for the first offense of not wearing a mask on the House floor. Subsequent offenses would cost $2,500 each. But offenders don’t get a bill for what they owe — it’s deducted from their pay automatically.

Earlier this month, the USA Today reported that Greene had already by that point been fined at least $48,000 for 20 separate offenses over the course of the year.

In July, Greene and two other Republican lawmakers tried unsuccessfully to sue Nancy Pelosi over the fines, citing CDC guidelines saying that fully vaccinated people did not need to wear a mask in most situations. But only one of them, Ralph Norman of South Carolina, has said that he’s gotten the vaccine. Thomas Massie of Kentucky has publicly said that he refuses to be vaccinated because he has already had COVID-19.

Recent reports show that antibodies from vaccination are far more effective at preventing a future case of COVID than the naturally-occurring antibodies present after an infection.

Greene has thus far refused to disclose whether or not she has gotten the jab — part of her role as a defiant non-complier against government mandates.

It’s hard to imagine an easy-to-do thing I would be so principled against that I would knowingly surrender a third of my pay instead of wearing a piece of cloth over my face for a few hours whenever I was called in to work. But then, it’s not like Marjorie Taylor Greene does much work in Congress in the first place.

As of Oct. 28th, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has racked up $48,000 in fines for not wearing a mask on the House floor, according to her spokesman Nick Dyer. pic.twitter.com/IeEr1YxK8b
