NASHVILLE — The White House is slamming U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene after the Northwest Georgia congresswoman said this week she won’t vote to fund the federal government if the U.S. House doesn’t go along with an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.
“The last thing the American people deserve is for extreme House members to trigger a government shutdown that hurts our economy, undermines our disaster preparedness and forces our troops to work without guaranteed pay,” spokesperson Andrew Bates said in a statement Thursday night.
Greene earlier Thursday held a town hall in Floyd County, later saying on social media, “I will not vote to fund the government if it doesn’t do this.”
She then went on to list four items. It begins with Greene’s demand for holding an impeachment inquiry vote on Biden. Other demands included defunding “weaponization of government,” eliminating all COVID-19 vaccine mandates and no more funding for Ukraine in its fight in its struggle with Russia.
