Mark E. Green, a U.S. Congressman representing Tennessee's 7th district since 2019, shared his views on various issues through a series of tweets. Green has been vocal about national security and government spending priorities.
On March 18, 2025, Green tweeted about China's actions in maritime regions, stating: "China has used its fleet to erode freedom of navigation, harass civilian ships, and intimidate our allies. To maintain our strategic edge, we must invest ‘full speed ahead’ in our maritime industrial base—encompassing commercial shipbuilders, military shipyards, and every link in…" This tweet highlights his concerns regarding international maritime security and the need for investment in the U.S. maritime industry.
Later that day, Green criticized the Biden-Harris administration's allocation of funds at NASA: "The Biden-Harris administration wasted millions of tax dollars to promote DEI at NASA instead of focusing on its core mission: to explore, innovate, and discover." His remarks reflect disapproval over the current administration's spending decisions concerning diversity initiatives within NASA.
In another tweet posted shortly after, Green expressed support for the Trump administration's approach to NASA's objectives: "The Trump administration is restoring NASA’s prime directive—to explore the final frontier, to discover strange new worlds, and to seek answers to lingering questions." Here he contrasts previous leadership with current strategies regarding space exploration.
