The resolution was originally introduced by Republican Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. In November, the House voted to refer articles of impeachment against Mayorkas to committee. The House did not end up voting on the legislation, as eight Republicans voted with Democrats to refer the resolution to committee. The vote was 209-201.

In early February the resolution failed to pass the House in a 214-216 vote, with four Republicans joining Democrats. (RELATED: House Vote To Impeach DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas Fails)
