TL;DR Summary

House Speaker Mike Johnson notified Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer that the House will send impeachment articles against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to the Senate on April 10, with the trial expected to begin on April 11. The GOP-controlled House voted to impeach Mayorkas for alleged violations of immigration laws and lying to Congress. The Democratic-controlled Senate is expected to acquit Mayorkas, as convicting him would require two-thirds of the Senate, which Republicans don’t have. President Joe Biden denounced Republicans for their "blatant act of unconstitutional partisanship," and the 11 GOP impeachment managers have been named, including notable appointment Marjorie Taylor Greene.
