5:16:41Now PlayingSen. Markwayne Mullin, who is poised to lead the Department of Homeland Security, will face tough questions from Congress during his confirmation hearing on Wednesday.
Mullin, an Oklahoma senator, is set to inherit an already embattled department following the ouster of secretary Kristi Noem amid mounting criticism of her leadership of the agency.
What’s more, a funding battle in Congress is creating further bottlenecks for federal disaster assistance, increased frustration for travelers at the airport and scrutinized protocol for immigration enforcement. All these things, as well as Mullin’s combative personality, will make for a huge undertaking for the senator.
The hearing will be the first opportunity for lawmakers and the public to hear directly from Mullin about how he intends to run the third-largest department in the Cabinet.
The agency, which has a workforce of about 260,000 employees, oversees a diverse mission set of responsibilities ranging from protecting the president to helping states recover from disasters to deporting people in the country illegally.
After 13 years in Congress, fellow lawmakers hope Mullin can improve relationships on both sides of the aisle.
