Rep. Mark Green, representing Tennessee's 7th district in the U.S. Congress, shared updates and expressed concerns on policy and recent events through a series of tweets on April 4, 2025. Green, who has been serving since 2019 after replacing Marsha Blackburn, addressed pressing issues concerning immigration policy, climatic challenges in Tennessee, and medical authorization procedures.

Green posted on April 4, 2025, expressing his efforts to gather information on immigration policy decisions. He stated, "I sent a letter to DHS Secretary Kristi Noem renewing requests for information on the Biden-Harris administration’s unlawful mass-parole schemes, which were used to release more than 1.5 million inadmissible aliens into the country. This letter follows numerous unsatisfied requests."

In another tweet on the same day, Green shared his condolences with those affected by severe weather events in Tennessee. He wrote, "My prayers are with the families of the five Tennesseans who lost their lives during this week’s historic storms. Please follow all instructions from emergency personnel and be as cautious as possible."

Later, Green highlighted issues related to medical procedures, aligning with the American Medical Association's views. He tweeted, "The @AmerMedicalAssn is right, 'These [prior authorization] burdens translate into real-world harm including delayed diagnoses, treatment interruptions, worsening conditions, and declining patient trust.'
