The holiday weekend is over, making Wednesday the first full business day since the partial government shutdown took affect.
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) — With President Donald Trump overseas, the government shutdown is in its fifth day, and Wednesday was the first full business day since that shutdown took affect.

One woman was turned away at the Internal Revenue Service office in White Plains, where a security guard posted a sign that blames the closure on the government shutdown.
In New Rochelle, Lisa Miller was relieved and a bit surprised the Social Security office opened its doors.
“I thought they was gonna be closed today, but they wasn’t so that’s a great thing,” Miller said. “They’re helping us out a lot, and I was in there for two minutes and I got right out.
