Speaker Mike Johnson says the Senate border deal that ‘encourages illegal migrants’ will NOT pass the House of Representatives until Mexico’s catch-and-release and hold policy is reversed in a letter promising a quick vote on impeachment Mayorka

  • Johnson’s letter follows a request from President Trump not to accept a border deal that is not “perfect.”
  • Republicans on the House of Representatives Homeland Security Committee plan to vote on Mayorka’s articles of impeachment on January 30

In a new letter to colleagues, Speaker Mike Johnson revealed that the Senate National Security and Border Deal is “dead on arrival” in the House of Representatives and that he will instead focus on impeaching the Homeland Security Sec. Alejandro Mayorkas.

Johnson distributed a letter to Republicans on Friday, obtained by DailyMail.com, reaffirming the House’s position on the ongoing border security talks in the Senate.

“If the rumors about the contents of the draft bill were true, it would have been dead on arrival in the House of Representatives anyway,” the speaker said, instead calling on the Senate to pass the Republican party-line bill Party, HR 2, to be adopted. , which expired last year.

The speaker said it is “important” to ask “what is the point” of negotiating a border deal with Democrats if President Biden “is not going to enforce the laws that are already on the books.”

He emphasized that the House will “vigorously oppose” any policy proposal from the White House or Senate that would “further encourage illegal aliens to break the law.”

Senate negotiators have been going back and forth for months over a deal that would include funding for Ukraine and Israel and tighten border restrictions.

“We need a strong, powerful and essentially ‘PERFECT’ border,” Trump wrote from his Truth Social account late Thursday.

The former president said that unless Republicans achieve these goals, “we’re better off not making a deal.”

The “unsustainable invasion” at the southern border is considered a “death wish” for the United States, he added.

Republicans in the House of Representatives have officially scheduled a vote to impeach Homeland Security Sec. Alejandro Mayorkas next week.

The House Homeland Security Committee will meet on January 30 at 10 a.m. ET to consider articles of impeachment against Mayorkas for “high crimes and misdemeanors” related to his bungling of southern border security.

Johnson promised in his letter that a vote on impeachment would take place “as soon as possible afterwards.”

Chairman Mark Green, R-Tenn., told DailyMail.com earlier this week that the committee vote comes in the wake of the “unprecedented crisis” at the southern border.

His committee has held 10 hearings, published six reports totaling about 400 pages and conducted extensive interviews with chief patrol officers, he continued.

“Our thorough and fair investigation exposed Secretary Mayorkas’ abuse of power and refusal to comply with the law,” Green said in a statement to DailyMail.com.

The committee completed just two impeachment hearings earlier this month without testimony from Mayorkas, earning scorn from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which called the Republican Party-led investigation a “sham investigation.”

But a successful impeachment vote is not guaranteed, especially with the narrow three-seat majority in the House of Representatives.

Green has held one-on-one meetings with Republicans who have questioned whether Mayorkas’ actions amount to high crimes and misdemeanors.

Rep. Ken Buck, R-Colo., has warned that impeaching Mayorkas sets a “dangerous” precedent but said he will remain open to the prospect.

Last week, all 18 Republican members of the Homeland Security Committee released a statement Thursday saying they support Mayorkas’ ouster.
