Abbe Lowell requested that an ethics watchdog 'immediately' initiate a review of Greene's conduct after she showed the censored sexually explicit photos of Hunter, which came from his infamous laptop.
In a letter to the Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE), he said Greene's 'abhorrent' behavior blatantly violates House Ethics rules and standards of official conduct.
'If the OCE takes its responsibilities seriously, it will promptly and decisively condemn and discipline Ms. Greene for her latest actions,' Lowell wrote in a letter first obtained by The Hill.
'Now more than ever, the House has a duty to make loud and clear that it does not endorse, condone, or agree with her outrageous, undignified conduct and brazen violations of the standards of official conduct that do not reflect creditably on the House of Representatives,' he added.

The OCE is an independent, non-partisan entity responsible for reviewing allegations of misconduct against Members, officers, and staff of the US House of Representatives, according to their website.
If warranted, the OCE will refer matters to the House Committee on Ethics.
Greene raised eyebrows when she shared the explicit images of Hunter Biden with prostitutes during the Oversight Committee hearing on Wednesday.
The Georgia congresswoman warned parents watching at home before her time questioning IRS whistleblowers that 'discretion is advised.'
The shocking moment went out on the C-SPAN live stream as well as other cable network channels airing the hearing, including Fox News.
'Should we be displaying this?' Democratic Ranking Member Jaime Raskin questioned at one point during crosstalk with other members of the panel.

Greene's posters showed tickets that Hunter Biden bought for at least one escort to fly her out from Los Angeles, California, to Washington, D.C. in June 2018. Hunter wrote-off the tickets as travel for a 'west coast assistant,' Green claimed
Greene warned: 'Before we begin, I would like to let the committee and everyone watching at home that parental discretion is advised'
The images from Hunter's laptop hard drive were printed on poster board that Rep. Greene held up at the hearing that showcased President Joe Biden's son engaged in sex acts with prostitutes.
Greene claimed she was 'uncomfortable' showing the graphic photos to Congress, but insisted that 'the American people deserve to see' them.
'Before we begin, I would like to let the committee and everyone watching at home that parental discretion is advised,' Greene said.
Greene displayed the images in order to ask about Hunter Biden writing off taxes for costs related to escorts, prostitutes and sex clubs.
She also presented evidence that Hunter Biden paid for tickets for the escort to come out from Los Angeles to meet him in Washington, D.C. in June 2018.
'If he was purchasing her a plane ticket for sex and traveling across state lines, do you believe that is a violation (of law)?' Greene questioned the two IRS whistleblowers on Wednesday.

She added that the 'west coast assistant' noted in Hunter Biden's tax filings was likely this person he allegedly flew out from Los Angeles for prostitution purposes.
'That's not what paralegals do,' Greene said to laughter from those watching the hearing in the room.
Joseph Ziegler, one of the whistleblowers, said that he found in the investigation that Hunter did deduct from his taxes payments that he claimed were for a golf club membership, but were actually for a sex club, as well as travel for escorts rather than assistants.
Ziegler's appearance brought to an end the mystery of Whistleblower X, which he was known as until the hearing on Wednesday. He has worked with the IRS since 2010 and claims that Hunter Biden received preferential treatment in the investigation into his financial dealings and tax fraud.
At the same time, a pre-recorded interview with Ziegler was released in which he said that anytime the IRS tried to look into President Joe Biden they were told 'we can't ask those questions.'
Greene held up another poster claiming: 'Hunter recorded multiple sex tapes with a prostitute he had paid...'
IRS Criminal Investigator Joseph Ziegler showed his face for the first time Wednesday after blowing the whistle on preferential treatment in the Hunter Biden case – and previously only being identified as Whistleblower X
Ahead of his appearance, the name plate 'Mr. Ziegler' was placed at the witness table next to whistleblower and IRS Supervisory Special Agent Gary Shapley's spot.
In his testimony to the Oversight Committee on Wednesday, Ziegler identified himself as a 'gay Democrat married to a man,' and said his coming forward was not politically motivated.
He 'equated the experience' of becoming a whistleblower to 'feelings I encountered when coming out.'
'It was honestly one of the hardest things I ever had to go through, a contemplative scenario, so it would have been highly regrettable,' he said.

Why should I care if Hunter Biden is a disgusting sleaze bag? I do care that his father is protecting him, and I have my suspicions of WHY his father is protecting him, but the mere fact that he is a sleaze bag does not offend my sensibilities at all.
I agree, Bob.
