This Weekâs Congressional Hearings
This is scheduled to be a general oversight hearing - however in the wake of Trumpâs âshitholeâ comments, she is likely to be asked about them. Secretary Nielsen is one of the ones in the room who âdo not recallâ Trumpâs statements.
- Notable: Senator Durbin is a senior member of this committee and Senator Feinstein (a strong advocate for DACA recipients) is the ranking member.
