Alejandro Mayorkas: House Republicans plot swift impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary as moderates signal support
House Republicans are planning to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas due to the recent surge in migrant crossings at the southern border. This controversial move would make Mayorkas the first Cabinet secretary to be impeached in nearly 150 years. Plans are underway to run the impeachment effort through the House Homeland Security Committee. Republicans argue Mayorkas has failed to enforce the nation’s immigration laws which amounts to an impeachable offense. According to the Department of Homeland Security, 1.4 million individuals who were encountered at the border were removed in fiscal year 2022, which is more than in any previous year.
