House Republicans Hold Hearing to Consider Impeaching DHS Secretary Over Border Issues
• House Republicans holding second and final impeachment hearing for DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on January 18th • Hearing before House Homeland Security Committee; will hear from Arizona sheriff and people impacted by border issues • Republicans accuse Mayorkas of failing to enforce immigration laws amid record numbers of migrants • Mayorkas declines to attend hearing in person due to scheduling conflict; offers to testify later • Unlikely Mayorkas would be convicted in Senate even if impeached by House, but would be first Cabinet member impeached since 1876
