WASHINGTON – Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas shrugged off calls Friday for his impeachment by Sen. Ted Cruz and others, accusing critics of encouraging the illegal migration they say they condemn every time they say the border is open.
Cruz, a Texas Republican, and others say Mayorkas should be impeached for failing to control the border, resulting in record levels of illegal immigration spikes in smuggling of fentanyl and other contraband.
“I’ve got a lot of work to do, and I intend to continue to do it. That’s my response,” he said, during a meeting with The Dallas Morning News editorial board.
