Heinrich Votes AGAINST Border Crisis Accountability

APRIL 17 - On Wednesday, Senator Martin Heinrich voted against both impeachment charges against Joe Biden's DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. For three years, Mayorkas has lied and failed to uphold the U.S. Constitution and the laws of this country. As a result, the United States is experiencing the worst border crisis in American history.

Heinrich's unprecedented vote to dismiss the impeachment charges reaffirms his refusal to take the crisis at the U.S. Southern Border seriously. Heinrich has repeatedly voted against border security measures and is an outspoken supporter of lawless and dangerous sanctuary cities.

"Martin Heinrich has repeatedly voted against border security, and today's votes further prove that he is willing to put his radical agenda ahead of the safety of New Mexico," said Republican Party of New Mexico Chairman Steve Pearce. "As a career politician with no record to show for it, Heinrich has voted time and time again to weaken our U.S. southern border. New Mexico cannot afford the drugs, human trafficking, and chaos brought by the open border policies Heinrich has endorsed."

Martin Heinrich and Democrats held congressional majorities and the White House for two years and took no action. Suddenly, in 2024, Martin Heinrich is concerned about the crisis at our border.

More than ten million illegal immigrants have entered our country since Joe Biden entered office, including known individuals on the terrorist watch list. Drugs, human trafficking, and crime have increased exponentially in New Mexico as a result of the crisis at our U.S. Southern Border.
