Mark Green Reveals Why He Left Congress

Wait 5 sec.

“As of last week, Mark Green is no longer a member of Congress. But before he resigned — and in the months leading up to his announcement that he was stepping down to pursue a business opportunity — Green admits he was in a delicate position,” NOTUS reports.Said Green: “Part of the reason why I was so cagey about it is if I go and tell you the name of the company while I’m still a sitting congressman, couldn’t you make the accusation that I’m using my position to advertise my new company? Wouldn’t that be inappropriate? Potentially unethical?”“Green seemed to acknowledge that his position, serving as a representative while laying the groundwork for a mystery business venture, was a tricky one. But he maintained that he did nothing wrong, even as he suggested to NOTUS that he was pitching his idea to other members.”
