  On March 4, 2025, during President Donald Trump's address to a joint session of Congress, in response to Trump calling his victory in the 2024 presidential election "a mandate ", Green stood up, pointing his cane at the dais and shouted, "You have no mandate to cut Medicaid." Green was escorted out of the House Chamber by the sergeant-at-arms after repeatedly interrupting the address. The following day, Representative Dan Newhouse introduced, and the House moved forward a motion to censure Green for his actions the previous evening. Democrats failed to block the motion with a 209–211–1 vote. He was censured the next day on a vote of 224–198–2, with ten Democrats joining every Republican in voting in favor of the censure. During the aftermath of the vote's proceedings, he and several other Democratic representatives took to the House well to sing the civil rights anthem " We Shall Overcome ", which resulted in House Speaker Mike Johnson calling for order and, later, a recess.
