The House Homeland Security Committee is marking up impeachment articles against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas at a hearing Tuesday, with an entire House vote possible as soon as next week.

The Republican-drafted resolution accuses Mayorkas of “willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law” regarding immigration and charges him with “breach of public trust.” 

• Committee Chair Mark Green (R-Tenn.) said Tuesday the results of Mayorkas’s actions “have been catastrophic and have endangered the lives and livelihoods of all Americans” and that those actions “forced our hand,” CBS News reported.
  
  
• Committee Democrats have decried the effort. Ranking Democrat Rep. Bennie Thompson (Miss.) said “Republican members of Congress sworn to support and defend the Constitution are rejecting the framers’ clear intent, and over two centuries of precedent in favor of a sham impeachment.”
  
  
• Ahead of Tuesday’s hearing, Mayorkas wrote a seven-page response to Green regarding the GOP’s allegations. Read more on that here. 

Remember: If the GOP-led House does vote to impeach Mayorkas, the effort is unlikely to go anywhere in the Democratic-led Senate, where two-thirds of members would need to vote to convict in order to remove him.

Members of both parties in the upper chamber are also currently working on crafting border security legislation with input from Mayorkas himself, though Republicans in the House have signaled the reported deal is dead on arrival.

Some interesting context, from The Hill’s Rebecca Beitsch: “Mayorkas, the first Department of Homeland Security secretary to himself arrive to the U.S. as a migrant, would be the second Cabinet official to be impeached since the 1870s, following a secretary of War who took kickbacks.”

Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) confirmed Tuesday that the Justice Department is investigating her campaign’s spending on security services.

Bush said she’s also under investigation by the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and House Ethics Committee, noting the Office of Congressional Ethics did not find any wrongdoing and voted to dismiss the case.

The two-term House Democrat said she’s cooperating with all investigations. She also said “reporting that I have used federal funds for personal security is simply false.”

Watchdog group Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust filed a complaint with the FEC last year asking it to investigate Bush’s use of campaign funds. Learn more here.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) dismissed the argument that his objection to certain compromises on border policy is motivated by a desire to boost former President Trump‘s campaign.

“That’s absurd. We have a responsibility here to do our duty,” Johnson said Tuesday. “Our duty is to do right by the American people, to protect the people.”

Last week, Johnson said a Senate border deal that included certain reported details would be “dead on arrival” in the House, while Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) said those details were “internet rumors.” Legislative text has not been released.

Trump has urged no compromise on the border. He wrote on Truth Social, “I have no doubt that our wonderful Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, will only make a deal that is PERFECT ON THE BORDER.”
