"Mayorkas Faces Impeachment Push by House GOP Amid Border Crisis"

House Republicans are initiating impeachment proceedings against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, citing the ongoing migrant crisis at the southern border. The first hearing is scheduled for January 10 by the House Homeland Security Committee. This action coincides with bipartisan Senate discussions on border and immigration reform. DHS spokesperson Mia Ehrenberg and top Democrat Rep. Bennie Thompson have dismissed the impeachment efforts as baseless and politically motivated. Mayorkas has been involved in advising Senate negotiators on policy changes and has advocated for President Biden's supplemental package that includes foreign aid and border policy changes.
