Georgia GOP Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has been removed from her committee assignments, but she said she is hearing from fellow Republicans on U.S. House committees who say their input is being ignored by Democrats.
Greene, who represents Northwest Georgia's 14th District, was stripped of her committee assignments last week because of far-right theories she espoused on social media prior to her election.
Greene was a guest Wednesday morning on WDUN's Morning Talk with Martha Zoller, and she said some of her GOP colleagues have said they have no political power.
"It should be Democrats and Republicans working together for the good of the American people," Greene said. "They may not like our views and policies, but they should hear us out...but they don't care to work with us at all. As a matter of fact, they don't even talk to us."
Greene said one of her colleagues told her that in one committee, which she declined to identify, committee members with a law enforcement or military background were being told to undergo sensitivity training.
"[They were told] that they have domestic terrorist tendencies just like the people who attacked the Capitol on January 6," Greene said.
Greene said despite being barred from committee assignments, she remains busy with her new congressional duties. She said she is able to spend more time communicating with her constituents in the 14th District.
