House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman Andrew R. Garbarino (R-NY) has released a statement regarding Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
“I thank Secretary Noem for her service to our country. I look forward to continuing this Committee’s important work alongside DHS Secretary nominee Mullin, and I call for his swift confirmation.
“In the meantime, I urge my Democrat colleagues to make the right decision and stop playing dangerous games with DHS funding. As threats from Iran escalate, America must be fully prepared to respond to and mitigate heightened threats to the homeland,” Garbarino stated.
No additional details about the circumstances surrounding Secretary Noem or the nomination process for Mullin were provided in the statement.
