In a historic move, the House of Representatives voted to impeach Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, marking the first impeachment of a cabinet secretary in nearly 150 years. The resolution passed with a narrow margin of 214 yeas to 213 nays, making it a symbolically significant event.
The decision to impeach Mayorkas now moves to the Democratic-led Senate, where it is expected to face dismissal. Despite the unlikely outcome of a conviction, House Republicans have provided reasoning behind their decision to pursue impeachment.
