The House of Representatives has announced that it will send impeachment articles against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to the Senate next week. This decision comes after Senate Republicans requested more time to make their case for a full trial, as Democrats are expected to swiftly dismiss the articles at the beginning of the trial.
A spokesperson for House Speaker Mike Johnson stated that the House wants to ensure the Senate has adequate time to fulfill its constitutional duty. Initially planned for Wednesday, the transmission of the articles will now take place next week to allow for a more comprehensive discussion in the Senate.
