A prominent Republican lawmaker announced he will resign from his post midway through his term due to an "opportunity in the private sector that was too exciting to pass up."
The lawmaker in question is Mark Green, from Tennessee, who chairs the Homeland Security Committee. He will leave his post after the House votes on a final version of President Donald Trump's "big, beautiful bill," currently in the Senate and at the center of bitter infighting among Republicans over some of its content.
