"House Committee Votes on Impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas Amid GOP Allegations"

The House Homeland Security Committee is meeting to advance articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, accusing him of "willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law" and "breach of public trust" over the administration's handling of the migrant crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border. House Republicans have made border security a central theme of the 2024 campaign and have come out against a border security-immigration deal that Mayorkas helped negotiate with a bipartisan group of senators. The charges against Mayorkas face an all but certain failure in the Democratic-controlled Senate, but his impeachment would be historic given that he'd be the first Cabinet official to be impeached in almost 150 years.
