TL;DR Summary

The House Committee on Homeland Security, led by Republicans, has released draft articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, accusing him of willfully disregarding immigration law and breaching public trust. Democrats and DHS have called the articles a "sham," with Democrats accusing Republicans of abusing their impeachment power for political gain. Mayorkas and others in the DHS argue that it's Congress's responsibility to overhaul federal immigration laws and fix the broken immigration system. If the articles pass the committee, they will go to the full House for an impeachment vote, with the Democratic-led Senate having the final say on whether to convict.
