How immigration has become the top issue in the 2024 US Presidential elections


 How immigration has become the top issue in the 2024 US Presidential elections

There has been a surge of illegal immigration on the United States’ southern border. Why? What is behind the US’s failure to address this issue? And how will this play out in an election year?


The United States House Committee on Homeland Security — a standing committee that oversees the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) — on Wednesday (January 31) approved two articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. He has been accused of failing to enforce US immigration policies at the country’s southern border, which separates the US and Mexico.

While all of the 18 Republican House Representatives on the committee voted to recommend impeachment charges, the 15 Democratic House Representatives opposed the move. A full House vote on the impeachment of Mayorkas can take place as soon as next week.
