Chip Roy Calls for Accountability from DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas<\/h2>\n<p>Rep. Chip Roy\u2062 (R-TX) is determined \u2064to hold Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas accountable, refusing\u2063 to simply &#8220;give him a blank check.&#8221;\u200c Roy accuses Mayorkas of lying about \u2063security along\u200b the southern border, claiming that Texas is &#8220;under assault\u200b every day.&#8221; In a recent interview with \u2063News Nation, Roy shared disturbing stories\u200d of migrant children being held in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ghislaine-maxwell-has-final-pretrial-hearing\/\" title=\"Ghislaine Maxwell has final pretrial hearing\">sex trafficking operations<\/a>, \u2064emphasizing the urgent\u2062 need for action.<\/p>\n<h3>Protecting Border \u200cSecurity: A Core Responsibility<\/h3>\n<p>Roy firmly believes that funding should\u2064 be tied to performance, stating, &#8220;If you want funding, \u2063do your \u200ddamn job.&#8221;\u2064 He questions\u200c why he should allocate more money to Mayorkas, who Roy claims\u200c lied under oath and is allowing Texans to die. While Roy acknowledges the importance\u200b of \u200cfunding the Department of Homeland Security, he insists on attaching \u200cconditions\u2062 to ensure that Mayorkas fulfills \u2062his responsibilities. Roy argues that the Republican \u2062Party cannot campaign on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-red-wave-of-conservative-women-elected-to-congress\/\" title=\"The Red Wave of Conservative Women Elected to Congress\">border security<\/a> and \u2063then\u200c neglect their duty to use their &#8220;power of \u200dthe purse&#8221; to effect change.<\/p>\n<h3>A National Crisis: Demands for Tighter Border Security<\/h3>\n<p>In a &#8220;Dear Colleague&#8221; letter,\u200b Roy outlined a series of demands that must\u2063 be met for\u200d him to support legislation funding DHS. These <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/chip-roy-tells-mayorkas-to-do-your-job-not-going-to-give-him-a-blank-check\/\" title=\"Chip Roy demands Mayorkas to fulfill his duties and refuses to provide unlimited support.\">demands \u200cinclude measures<\/a> to tighten\u2062 security\u200d at the \u200dsouthern border, which Roy\u200c describes as a &#8220;national crisis.&#8221; He joins a\u2064 chorus of conservative voices criticizing Mayorkas for his handling of the border situation, with Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) accusing him of serving the interests of Mexican drug cartels.<\/p>\n<h3>Investigation and \u200bPotential Impeachment Inquiry<\/h3>\n<p>House Homeland Security\u200c Committee Chairman Mark Green (R-TN) has summoned \u200dMayorkas\u200d to\u2062 appear on Capitol Hill\u2064 in October for a hearing on border security.
