Green built his political career on hateful attacks against LGBTQ people and is a danger to every LGBTQ soldier bravely serving our country. Green encouraged the state of Tennessee to deny marriage licenses to same-sex couples after the Supreme Court ruled in Oberfell v. Hodges, characterized being transgender as a \u201cdisease,\u201d and supports license to discriminate laws that target LGBTQ people.<\/p>\n<p>In his first public statement since being nominated, Green attempted to dismiss his disgraceful attacks against the LGBTQ community as just \u201cpolitics.\u201d Our service members deserve better and HRC is urging senators to stand up to #StopMarkGreen. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Here&#8217;s their little video;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HQ9WqSmS6Sc\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure that I agree that an Army Secretary&#8217;s most important qualification is support for the politics of sexual deviancy.
