DHS Secretary defends border policies under intense grilling from GOP lawmakers
CBSN
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Wednesday faced fiery pushback from Republican lawmakers while defending the Biden administration's border policies, ahead of the planned termination of the Trump-era pandemic policy, Title 42, on May 23.
GOP Rep. Clay Higgins of Louisiana said Mayorkas would be impeached if Republicans retake the House in November.
"You've been called upon to resign. Next year, if we have the majority in this committee, which we shall, you'll face impeachment," Higgins said, during Wednesday's hearing. "Own this thing. Out of respect for you and the office, I ask you to reflect upon that."
