Notably, Newhouse is one of two House Republicans left in Congress who voted to impeach Trump over the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot – a fact that backers of a competing censure resolution seized on.
Newhouse's introduction comes after the House Freedom Caucus announced it would be filing legislation to censure Green, led by Rep. Eli Crane, R-Ariz.
Meanwhile, Rep. Troy Nehls, R-Texas, began collecting signatures for a censure resolution against Green around 9 a.m. ET on Wednesday.
Nehls' bill currently has 24 Republican co-sponsors, including members of the House Freedom Caucus, a source told Fox News Digital.
But two other sources familiar with discussions told Fox News Digital that Newhouse's resolution is most likely to be taken up by House GOP leadership.
A House GOP senior aide said in response, "It's just tone deaf to even think that leadership would run with a censure from one of the two remaining GOP members who voted to impeach President Trump."

Green remained defiant when he stopped to speak with the White House press pool on the first floor of the U.S. Capitol after being thrown out of the second floor House chamber, where Trump was speaking on Tuesday night.
"I'm willing to suffer whatever punishment is available to me. I didn't say to anyone, don't punish me. I've said I'll accept the punishment," Green said, according to the White House press pool report.
"But it's worth it to let people know that there are some of us who are going to stand up against this president's desire to cut Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security."
Fox News Digital reached out to Johnson's and Green's offices for comment.
