Mayorkas Impeachment Trial: Key Developments
Salary Implications for Former Homeland Security Secretary
Alejandro Mayorkas, the former Secretary of Homeland Security, may face a significant salary reduction if he is convicted in his upcoming impeachment trial. As Secretary of Homeland Security, Mayorkas earned an annual salary of approximately $200,000. However, if he is found guilty, he could lose a portion of that amount.
Impeachment Trial Details
The impeachment trial of Alejandro Mayorkas is set to begin at 1 pm EST. All 100 senators will be sworn in as jurors. The trial is expected to last several days, with both the prosecution and defense presenting their cases.
Mayorkas' Financial Status
According to Forbes, Mayorkas purchased a home in Washington, D.C. for $1.6 million the year after he joined the Obama administration. This purchase raises questions about his financial situation and whether he could afford to pay a reduced salary if convicted.
