Reuters, WASHINGTON – The Republican leadership of the U.S. House of Representatives was put to
the test on Tuesday when it had to decide whether to use its slim majority to vote to remove President
Joe Biden’s top border official.

what is expected to be a rematch with Biden in November, immigration concerns have emerged as a
major issue in this year’s election campaign. Separately, Trump has been pressuring congressional
Republicans to oppose a bipartisan agreement on border security that was unveiled on Sunday.
Alejandro Mayorkas, the secretary of homeland security, was the target of two articles of impeachment
approved by the House Homeland Security Committee last week. This was an almost unprecedented
action taken against a member of the president’s cabinet over a disagreement over policy. Republicans
will need to pass the measures with almost unanimous support (219–212), but even if they do, Mayorkas
will almost certainly be found not guilty by the Democratic-majority Senate. Republicans who have stated
they will not support the bill are at least two. The investigation into Mayorkas, according to
Representatives Ken Buck and Tom McClintock, had not been able to “identify an impeachable crime,
”
as they both stated on Tuesday.
In a 10-page memo, California’s Tom McClintock charged that his party had failed to propose an
impeachable “high crime or misdemeanor.

stated. The vote takes place in the midst of a standoff between the Senate and the House over reducing
an illegal immigration wave that in December resulted in a record 10,000 border arrests per day. House
Republicans who opposed a bipartisan Senate agreement that would have imposed the strictest
immigration and asylum laws in decades have been charged with behaving in bad faith regarding the
impeachment of Mayorkas.
