The latest developments on the government shutdown, on Channel 2 Action News starting at 4:00 p.m.

Greene told “The View” hosts she doesn’t have a problem pointing fingers at everyone, even the leaders of her own party.

“And the worst thing that I just can’t get over is we’re not working right now. And I put that criticism directly on the speaker of the House, and we should be at work,” Greene said.

Greene called it an “embarrassment” that House members are getting paid, even though they aren’t in session. The Congresswoman said she is not taking her paycheck.

“I want all federal employees to be paid. I want all the programs to be funded, and I think that is our job, all of us together, Republicans and Democrats in the House and the Senate,” she said.
