A U.S. Senate panel expressed strong disapproval of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin's plan to halt customs processing at airports in cities governed by Democrats, sparking a heated debate about immigration enforcement and federal-local government relations. Senators questioned the potential impact on international travel and the aggressive tactics used by federal officers, highlighting broader concerns about federal overreach. This disagreement underscores the growing tension between federal immigration policies and local governance, particularly in cities that often oppose such measures.
