Rep. Mark Green said he was returning to the private sector to start his own business, without sharing details about the business.

Rep. Mark Green, R-Tenn., announced his official resignation from Congress on Friday, a move that was expected but one that could, at least for now, shrink Republicans’ already narrow majority in the House.

With his resignation, Republicans are down to a 219-212 majority in the House, at least until his seat in the solidly red district is filled.

His resignation will be effective July 20, Fox News reports from a letter Green sent to House Republican leadership.
