Update March 16: This Wednesday, March 18th, the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee will be hold a confirmation hearing on Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), who has been nominated to serve as Secretary of Homeland Security.
***********
Call your senators now and urge them to vote NO on confirming Markwayne Mullin as Secretary of Homeland Security.
President Donald Trump has nominated Mullin, a U.S. senator from Oklahoma and outspoken Trump loyalist, to lead the Department of Homeland Security after firing Kristi Noem on March 5.
DHS is responsible for protecting the country while upholding the Constitution and the rule of law. But under the Trump administration, the department has already faced widespread criticism for human rights abuses, misuse of taxpayer funds, and defiance of court orders.
Mullin’s record suggests those problems would only worsen. He’s backed some of the most extreme immigration policies in Congress, including co-sponsoring the Laken Riley Act and defending aggressive enforcement actions by immigration authorities. He has even suggested that children who are U.S. citizens should be deported if their parents are deported.
The Senate must exercise its oversight role and reject this nomination. DHS needs leadership that respects the Constitution, human rights, and the rule of law.
