Mayorkas Impeachment Markup Scheduled for January 31, According to GOP Memo

The Homeland Security Committee requests written testimony from Mayorkas after he declined to testify in person, marking a critical point in the ongoing impeachment proceedings.

An internal Republican memo reveals plans to mark up an impeachment resolution for Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on January 31, 2024.
Mayorkas has been accused by Republicans of a 'dereliction of duty' and a 'willful violation of his oath' in his handling of the crisis at the southern border.
Mayorkas was invited to testify in person at the hearing but declined due to other commitments, including hosting a Mexican delegation.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has criticized the impeachment proceedings as a 'bad-faith, predetermined and unconstitutional rush' to impeach Mayorkas.
The House Homeland Security Committee has now requested written testimony from Mayorkas, warning that it was his 'last chance' to answer for his handling of the southern border crisis.
