High Time to Impeach & Replace Secretary Mayorkas!

Act for America | 4/19/2023

Dear John,

Secretary of Homeland Security, Alejandro Nicholas Mayorkas, in violation of his constitutional oath, has engaged in a pattern of conduct that is incompatible with his constitutional and statutory duties as Secretary of Homeland Security.

Senator Marshall has introduced a resolution calling for a ‘No Confidence’ vote which will lead to immediate impeachment and replacement of Mayorkas. Click Here to view the resolution draft>>

Hold Mayorkas accountable for his intentional suspension of border and immigration laws and refusal to honor his oath of office and his sworn duty to perform, which includes the Secure Fence Act of 2006 requiring the Secretary and Homeland Security to ‘‘take all actions necessary and appropriate to achieve and maintain operational control over the entire international land and maritime borders of the United States’’ including ‘‘the prevention of all unlawful entries into the United States, including entries by terrorists, other unlawful aliens, instruments of terrorism, narcotics, and other contraband”, as evidenced by—

A. more than 5,500,000 illegal aliens crossing the United States southern border during Secretary Mayorkas’ term in office;

B. the apprehension of 98 individuals listed on the Terrorist Screening Database at the southern border during the fiscal year 2022, which is more such apprehensions than occurred during the previous 5 years combined;

C. more fentanyl entering the United States in a recent 2-month period than the amount of fentanyl that entered the United States during all of fiscal year 2019, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths from fentanyl overdoses, which are now the leading cause of death for Americans between 18 and 45 years of age; and 

D. the failure of the Department of Homeland Security to comply with provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act which require the detention of inadmissible aliens arriving in the United States or aliens who are physically present in the United States without inspection until processed, and the implementation by Secretary Mayorkas of unlawful and misguided catch-and-release directives, such as the Notice to Report process and the parole plus Alternatives to Detention process, which have resulted in the reckless re-lease of more than 1,000,000 illegal aliens into the interior of the United States; and

Secretary Mayorkas gravely endangering the national security of the United States, undermining the operational control of our southern border, and encouraging illegal immigration by—

A. terminating contracts for additional border wall construction, in contradiction of congressional appropriations;

B. ending the Migrant Protection Protocols (commonly known as ‘‘Remain in Mexico’’), which was an indispensable tool to address the border crisis and restore integrity to the immigration system; and  

C. attempting to terminate the order of suspension issued by the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention under section 362 of the Public Health Service Act as a result of the public health emergency relating to the COVID–19 pandemic (commonly known as ‘‘title 42 authority’’), which has proven to be a critical tool enabling U.S. Customs and Border Protection to quickly expel illegal aliens. 

Upon termination of title 42 authority, the Department of Homeland Security is planning to reroute asylum and parole applicants through the CBP One mobile application to obscure border encounter numbers.
   
On multiple occasions Alejandro Nicholas Mayorkas has willfully provided perjurious, false, and misleading testimony to Congress, testifying under oath that we have ‘operational control of the border’ despite the fact that, the term ‘‘operational control’’ has defined in law as ‘‘the prevention of all unlawful entries into the United States, including entries by terrorists, other un-lawful aliens, instruments of terrorism, narcotics, and other contraband’’.  

Under his watch we have seen a record-breaking numbers of illegal entries, millions of known ‘‘getaways’’, and seizures of deadly fentanyl and other contraband, confirming that Mayorkas has not taken all actions necessary to ensure operational control of the southern border, as required by law. 

U.S. Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz, in a field hearing before the Committee on Homeland Security of the House of Representatives, stated that U.S. Border Patrol does not have operational control of the border, which directly contradicts Secretary Mayorkas’ April 2022 testimony to the Committee on the Judiciary of the House of Representatives. 

Secretary Alejandro Nicholas Mayorkas has never held the confidence of most Americans to faithfully carry out his duties as Secretary of Homeland Security. Call on Congress to sign a Senate and/or Joint Resolution to vote ‘no confidence’ in Secretary Mayorkas, vote to impeach and remove him from office immediately!
