"Senate Impeachment Trial of Alejandro Mayorkas: Live Updates and Potential Swift Resolution"
The Senate is set to convene at 1 p.m. ET to consider the articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who became the first Cabinet secretary to be impeached in almost 150 years. Senate Republicans are seeking a time agreement with Democrats for floor debate, while some Republicans oppose a quick dismissal or motion to table the articles. Mayorkas has called on Congress to pass bipartisan border reform legislation as the Senate prepares to consider the impeachment articles, and the White House and Department of Homeland Security are in regular touch over the impeachment inquiry.
