Rep. Mark Green, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Tennessee's 7th district, has recently shared his legislative initiatives and views on pressing international issues through a series of tweets dated November 21, 2024. Green's posts address healthcare legislation for rural communities, border security concerns under the Biden-Harris administration, and his stance on international legal matters involving Israel.

On November 21, 2024, Rep. Mark Green announced the introduction of three bills aimed at improving healthcare access in rural areas: "Rural ER Access Act," "Rural Health Care Access Act," and "Reducing Medically Unnecessary Delays in Care Act." These initiatives are part of his commitment to advocate for quality healthcare for rural communities. "I’ve introduced three separate bills that advocate for rural communities and their access to quality healthcare."

Later that day, Green expressed concerns about national security related to immigration policy by emphasizing the urgency of securing the U.S. border. He attributed significant human costs to what he described as the "Biden-Harris border crisis." "Yet another reason why we need to secure the border as soon as possible."

In another tweet from November 21, 2024, Rep. Green defended Israel's right to protect itself against threats from Iran and its proxies. He criticized the International Criminal Court (ICC), calling it an illegitimate institution that should be dismantled due to its perceived injustices against Israel. "Israel has every right to defend itself against Iran and its proxies."
