Rep. Mark Green said he was returning to the private sector to start his own business, without sharing details about the business.

Rep. Mark Green, R-Tenn., announced his official resignation from Congress on Friday, a move that was expected but one that could, at least for now, shrink Republicans’ already narrow majority in the House.

With his resignation, Republicans are down to a 219-212 majority in the House, at least until his seat in the solidly red district is filled.

His resignation will be effective July 20, Fox News reports from a letter Green sent to House Republican leadership.

    Democrats aint getting back the Senate until 2029 January 3rd, because 2026 has only Main’s seat that is even plausible to get flipped, and its now a 53-47 majority, need like 3 more seats flipped at least. Appointments aint getting blocked and that’s gonna be a 7-2/8-1/9-0 supreme court.
