Markwayne Mullin Says Agents Don't Need a Warrant If They're Pursuing a Suspect. Here's What the Law Says.

During his Wednesday confirmation hearing, Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) secretary nominee, said he would reverse the agency's current policy allowing immigration officers to forcibly enter homes without a judicial warrant. 

"A judicial warrant will be used to go into houses, into places of business, unless [agents] are pursuing someone that enters in that place," said Mullin.
