For nearly a year, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has been under investigation by the House Committee on Homeland Security for his failure to uphold and enforce our nation’s laws. As a member of this committee, I’ve been vocal about my concern for his dereliction of duty and how it has threatened the safety of communities in my district and across the nation.
Through the testimony of victims of the border crisis, Department of Homeland Security documents produced under threat of subpoena, and hearings with expert witnesses, our investigation has shown that Mayorkas has implemented policies that harm every state, whether through crimes committed by illegal immigrants, costs to local government, or the influx of fentanyl. The evidence is clear: Mayorkas’s open border policies have hurt all people, including the Floridians I represent.
