House Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security Chairman Mark Amodei (R-NV) intervened on behalf of Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-CT) during a particularly heated segment of a hearing with Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin.

Order at the committee broke down when DeLauro, the ranking member of the full House Appropriations Committee, began criticizing Mullin’s Department of Homeland Security over the separation of illegal immigrant children from their families. Mullin began defending himself while DeLauro was still speaking, triggering a yelling match.
