Mullin enfrenta interrogatorio en el Senado sobre presupuesto del DHS, medidas migratorias y seguridad para la Copa Mundial

Department of Homeland Security Secretary John Mullin appeared before the Senate on Tuesday for the first time since his confirmation hearing in March, facing tough questions on the DHS budget, the administration's immigration crackdown, and security preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Mullin, appointed by President Trump after his predecessor Kristi Noem was fired, defended the department's spending priorities amid calls for increased border security funding.

Senators pressed him on the operational impact of mass deportations and the readiness of federal agencies to handle the influx of international visitors expected for the World Cup, which will be co-hosted by the United States. Mullin acknowledged challenges but pledged to work with Congress to ensure adequate resources.

The hearing highlighted ongoing partisan divisions over immigration policy and homeland security funding.
