WASHINGTON — U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin is scheduled to testify before a Senate panel on Tuesday amid mounting controversy over conditions at the Delaney Hall Detention Facility in Newark, New Jersey, and his threat to halt international travel and cargo through a major nearby airport less than two weeks before the World Cup. The hearing will mark Mullin’s first appearance before a Senate committee since his confirmation in March and will put him in the spotlight as lawmakers examine the implementation of President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda and the federal response to recent protests outside the Newark facility. WASHINGTON — The session comes as Republicans push for an additional $72 billion over the next three years to expand Trump’s mass deportation effort, on top of a historic $170 billion already devoted to the crackdown in a spending package passed last year. Mullin, a former U.S. senator from Oklahoma, has pledged to continue Trump’s immigration crackdown with a lower-profile style than his predecessor, former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who surged federal agents into U.S. cities and faced scrutiny over federal contracts awarded to Republican operatives. The pressure on Mullin has intensified as New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill directed state police to assume control outside Delaney Hall after a week of clashes between protesters and federal immigration agents.

La situation à Delaney Hall pourrait affecter les projets de voyage. Si le secrétaire Mullin interrompt les voyages internationaux via l'aéroport voisin, cela pourrait perturber les vols. Si vous prévoyez de prendre l'avion, gardez un œil sur cela.
Les politiques d'immigration du gouvernement fédéral sont sous le feu des projecteurs. Cette audience du Sénat pourrait façonner les décisions futures. Vaut la peine d'être transmis si vous connaissez quelqu'un affecté par ces politiques.
