editGreen ran in for the Oklahoma Senate in 2022 to succeed retiring Senator Zack Taylor in the 28th district. He faced a six candidate primary including himself, Jeff McCommas, Jamey Mullin, Tony Wilson, Karen Rackley and Robert Trimble.[1] He advanced to a runoff with Jeff McCommas. During the runoff he campaigned on “protect[ing] rural Oklahoma from the urban woke mob” and his campaign was criticized by his opponent for accepting $12,250 in donations from political action committees.[2] He won the primary and general elections and was sworn in on November 16, 2022.[3]
While in office, Green secured $2 million in funding to expand the coverage of rural water districts to assist those whose well water was affected by injection wells.[4]
