In a groundbreaking move, Congressman David Rouzer (NC-07) has voted in favor of impeaching Alejandro Mayorkas, Secretary of Homeland Security. The House of Representatives passed H. Res. 863, a legislation that accuses Mayorkas of high crimes and misdemeanors for intentionally violating immigration and border security laws, which in turn jeopardizes the safety of the American people.

Rouzer, along with other lawmakers, has expressed grave concerns about the consequences of the Biden Administration's open border policies. He firmly believes that these policies have facilitated drug cartels' illegal activities, including drug trafficking and sex trafficking operations, as well as the influx of lethal substances like fentanyl into American communities.

"Drug cartels are making millions daily funneling drugs throughout the country, growing their sex trafficking operations, and pumping record amounts of fentanyl onto our streets, killing our youth, neighbors, and relatives in shocking numbers — and it is largely because of the Biden Administration's open border policies that defy our laws," Rouzer stated.

The House Committee on Homeland Security conducted an extensive investigation into the causes, costs, and consequences of the border crisis. Their findings placed the blame squarely on Secretary Mayorkas, holding him as the primary government official directly responsible for the unfolding crisis at the border. Mayorkas's willful disregard for the immigration laws on the books has led to this dire situation, and he must be held accountable.

The impeachment of a high-ranking government official like Mayorkas is a significant step that reflects the growing concerns of lawmakers and the American people about the state of border security. By voting in favor of impeachment, Congressman Rouzer has clearly demonstrated his commitment to upholding the rule of law and protecting the safety of American citizens.

The legislation's passage in the House of Representatives marks a critical moment in the ongoing debate surrounding immigration and border security. It sends a strong message that any official who neglects their duty to enforce immigration laws and protect national security will face serious consequences.

As the country moves forward, it remains to be seen how this impeachment will impact the Biden Administration's approach to border security. The American people will continue to watch closely as their elected representatives take action to address this pressing issue.
