Rep. Mark Green (R-Tenn.), who is chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security, has said he won’t seek reelection this year and will go “out with a win” after the chamber voted to impeach Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

During his Feb. 14 announcement on the Capitol’s steps, Mr. Green said he has achieved everything he set out to do and more, so he won’t run for a fourth term. He was first elected to represent Tennessee’s Seventh Congressional District in 2018.
