Mark Green beats Dan Crenshaw in race to chair Homeland Security Committee
Rep. Mark Green (R-TN) won the coveted gavel for the House Committee on Homeland Security on Monday, beating Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) for the position.
Green, a combat veteran described by his colleagues as a rising star in the party, said that strengthening the border would be a top priority as he gears up to helm the panel.
Green is a member of the House Freedom Caucus, giving conservatives a win and placing them in more positions of power as Republicans assume the majority. Green has maintained a strong relationship with leadership, helping Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) get over the finish line during his heated floor battle for speaker.
House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mark Green (R-TN) is holding a hearing today centered around the human toll of the Biden border crisis. Former DHS agent Tim Ballard will testify that the Biden administration’s policies are to blame for child trafficking.
Ballard inspired the blockbuster film “Sound of Freedom.” The human impact of the southern border crisis includes sex trafficking and fentanyl poisonings.
Green said that impeachment of Mayorkas is a very real possibility.
