House Speaker Kevin McCarthy will travel this week to the US southern border with freshmen GOP lawmakers as Republicans continue to hammer the Biden administration on immigration and security. 

The border trip marks McCarthy’s first as speaker and follows growing GOP calls for the impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, for whom Republicans have blamed for the administration’s border policies and the increasing number of migrants at the US-Mexico frontier.
