Three House committee chairmen delivered a final warning Friday to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, telling him to turn over details about terrorism suspects who’ve sneaked across the southern border or else they’ll seek to issue a subpoena to force him to comply.
They said they’ve been seeking the data for more than four months and “to date, you have failed to comply satisfactorily with our requests.”
Republicans have been troubled by the surging number of terrorism suspects detected at the southern border since President Biden took office. CBP used to refuse to report the TSDS numbers, calling them sensitive law enforcement information. The agency reversed course in the spring of 2022 under pressure from House Republicans.
Mr. Mayorkas has said when agents encounter terrorism suspects, they are denied entry or detained as security risks and, unless they win their immigration cases, are deported.They asked for the immigration files of all of the migrants who did flag in the TSDS, including whether they were detained and deported. The chairmen also asked for the department’s estimate of security risks within the gotaway population.
