Alejandro Mayorkas: Biden's Homeland security chief impeached by U.S House Republicans | Oneindia

On Tuesday (Feb 13), the Republican-dominated US House of Representatives impeached Homeland Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas.

The measure passed with a slim margin of 214 to 213, following a failed attempt last week.

Republican lawmakers advanced two articles, accusing Mayorkas of "willful and systemic refusal" to uphold immigration law and of "breach of public trust," marking the first impeachment of a cabinet member in nearly 150 years.

Mayorkas, President Joe Biden's immigration chief, had been under scrutiny for an extended period, with Republicans holding him responsible for the surge in migrants illegally crossing the southern border.
