Let me start with this: The House is pursuing impeachment because there is no option left. Secretary Mayorkas has abandoned his job, and he has abandoned the American people. As the charges describe, the Secretary has willfully and systemically refused to comply with the law, and he has put our communities and our country at risk by doing so. This is not an action we take lightly. The last time a Cabinet Secretary was impeached was in 1876. This is a historic impeachment for someone with historic failures. The time has run out for Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to be able to do his job. In order to secure our communities, protect our homeland, and keep Americans safe, Secretary Mayorkas has got to go.
