House Homeland Security Chairman Mark E. Green, who earlier this month announced his plan to retire rather than seek a fourth term in Congress, is reversing course.
“While my strong desire was to leave Congress at the end of this year, since my announcement, I have received countless calls from constituents, colleagues, and President Trump urging me to reconsider,” the Tennessee Republican said in a statement Thursday.
Axios was first to report the change in plans, which had been speculated about throughout the week. Green was not term limited at the Homeland Security panel.
