Congressman Mark Green Announces Retirement, Citing Frustration with Washington Politics

In a surprising move, Republican Congressman Mark Green of Tennessee, who recently played a prominent role in overseeing the impeachment proceedings against the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary, Alejandro Mayorkas, has declared that he will not seek re-election. This decision adds to the growing list of congressional leaders stepping away from their roles.

Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, Green, announced his retirement on Wednesday, expressing a sense of accomplishment for achieving his legislative goals but conveying a deep frustration with the perceived dysfunction in the nation's capital.
