Republican senators Thom Tillis and Lisa Murkowski call for Kristi Noem to resign as DHS secretary

Senators Tillis and Murkowski cite mishandling of immigration enforcement and false victim accusations, urging Homeland Security Secretary Noem to resign amid growing bipartisan criticism.

  • On Tuesday, Sen. Thom Tillis called for Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to resign over the Minnesota immigration crackdown and ICE shootings, saying `I think that what she's done in Minnesota should be disqualifying`.
  • Earlier this month, Tillis placed a hold on all DHS nominations after the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good until Kristi Noem agreed to testify to Congress.
  • Shortly after Tillis's remarks, Sen. Lisa Murkowski joined him, saying Noem should likely step down, while key Democrats threatened impeachment if she or President Donald Trump does not act.
  • Leaving office next year, Tillis has long criticized DHS for not committing Federal Emergency Management Agency resources and warned Noem's handling harms President Donald Trump's immigration message.
