“I am one of the most conservative members of Congress and last night I voted for a bill that ordinarily I would never vote for,” she said on X.

“However, the man that took a bullet to the face and won the presidential election with 312 electoral college votes, and the most votes of any Republican presidential candidate in history asked me to vote for it, so I did, gladly,” she added.

Hers was a warning call to House Republicans planning another vote on Friday on a revised budget plan to keep the government open but on conservative terms.

If it includes unacceptable pork to win Democratic support, then she and other Republicans prefer that the government partially shut down.

“Let it shut down,” Greene said. “I’ll only vote to pay our military, Border Patrol, and key federal law enforcement, and the very basics to keep things running until Jan. 20, 2025. House Republicans, we better figure out how to get this done next year.”

Her full X statement:

I am one of the most conservative members of Congress and last night I voted for a bill that ordinarily I would never vote for.

However, the man that took a bullet to the face and won the presidential election with 312 electoral college votes, and the most votes of any Republican presidential candidate in history asked me to vote for it, so I did, gladly.

After Johnson completely failed us by not including us in the planning of this year end’s government funding and then dumped a 1,500 page CRomnibus on us Tuesday night with little time to read it and got caught, in his scheme with Schumer, McConnell, and Hakeem, by all the great American people here on X along with Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, it was President Trump‘s team, our incoming Vice President JD Vance, and then President Trump himself that dove in, in the midnight hour, and came up with a CR that solves the debt ceiling problem for President Trump, and even more importantly, helped hurricane victims, farmers, and would keep the government open.

They shouldn’t have had to do that but they did.

After that CR failed last night, I can assure you nothing good is coming behind it.

But what is worse in my opinion is that we gave up a critical opportunity to unite and pass our own CR sending it to Senate with a powerful message to Schumer and the Dems that come hell or high water we are going to deliver for Pres Trump and the people who elected him.

After this let it shut down. 

I’ll only vote to pay our military, border patrol, and key federal law enforcement, and the very basics to keep things running until Jan 20, 2025.

House Republicans, we better figure out how to get this done next year.

And that will require changes.
