Senators to be sworn in for Mayorkas impeachment trial ahead of expected dismissal
Fox News
After House impeachment managers delivered articles of impeachment to Schumer on Tuesday, all senators are set to be sworn in as jurors to consider the impeachment of DHS Secretary Mayorkas.
Julia Johnson is a politics writer for Fox News Digital and Fox Business, leading coverage of the U.S. Senate. She was previously a politics reporter at the Washington Examiner.
The long-awaited delivery set into motion a procedure in the Senate, requiring that lawmakers be sworn in as jurors the following day to address the articles. Follow Julia's reporting on X at @JuliaaJohnson_ and send tips to Julia.Johnson@fox.com.
However, Republicans have spent the last few weeks speculating that their Democratic counterparts will look to off-ramp the impeachment trial before arguments begin. This was confirmed by Schumer on the Senate floor on Wednesday morning when he confirmed his intention to seek dismissal.
