Generally a U.S. citizen may petition for a spouse to adjust status in the U.S. to become a Lawful Permanent Resident (to get a "Green Card") if the spouse entered the U.S. lawfully and with inspection, such as with a "temporary work visa." This is true even if the spouse may have overstayed his initial visa. In order for the USCIS to regard the couple as married, one of the requirements is that the spouses were eligible to marry at the time they became married. A person lawfully married to another person is not eligible to become remarried until that first marriage is terminated through divorce, death or annulment.
if he is legally married to another person he cannot be your husband in the US. He needs to divorce his wife and then marry you. Then if he entered the US legally you can file petition and he can file I-485 to adjust his status to permanent resident. If he entered the US illegally, it will be very complicated and you need to hire an experienced immigration to assist you and him.
