一个为非法移民犯罪受害者发声的组织称，超过300个因边境政策宽松而遭受不幸的家庭，正在敦促国会成员支持俄克拉荷马州共和党参议员马克韦恩·穆林担任国土安全部部长的提名。
致力于为因在美国非法居留人员犯罪而失去亲人的家庭发声的“美国边境故事”组织（TABS）于周一向共和党参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩和民主党参议院少数党领袖查克·舒默发出一封信，就在参议院预计投票确认穆林之前不久。
TABS在周一的信中表示：“对于我们所代表的家庭来说，边境安全不是一个抽象的政策辩论。穆林参议员清楚地理解这些问题的利害关系。在他的国会生涯中，他一直致力于解决边境安全、公共安全以及联邦和地方当局面临的运营挑战等问题。同样重要的是，他愿意直接倾听受影响家庭的声音，并在政策讨论中提升他们的关切。我们相信穆林参议员将为国土安全部带来强有力的领导、实际经验以及明确保护美国社区的承诺。”

该组织赞扬了穆林的背景，“加上他对边境相关问题的直接参与”，并表示他们所代表的家庭“并不关注政治”。
信中总结道：“他们专注于确保没有其他家庭必须承受同样的悲剧”，并补充说，他们一致认为穆林“理解”这一“责任”和“国土安全部部长职位所需的严肃性”。
这位来自俄克拉荷马州的美国参议员[在关键的初步投票中幸存]，主要是按照党派路线进行的，这是他成为下一任国土安全部部长的必经之路。新墨西哥州民主党参议员马丁·海因里希和宾夕法尼亚州民主党参议员约翰·费特曼是唯一偏离党派路线投票支持确认穆林的民主党人。

被总统[唐纳德·特朗普]提名担任这一职务的穆林仍需再进行一次投票，最早可能要到周一晚间才能获得确认。

如果穆林在最终确认投票中胜出，他将接替国土安全部部长[克里斯蒂·诺姆]，特朗普在国会山举行的爆炸性听证会后以及明尼苏达州移民行动中发生芮妮·妮可·古德和亚历克斯·普雷蒂死亡事件后解雇了诺姆。他将执掌一个目前处于停摆状态的机构，因为以参议院少数党领袖[查克·舒默]（纽约州民主党人）为首的参议院民主党人五次阻挠了国土安全部的资金，以寻求对移民和海关执法局（ICE）的严格改革。
穆林表示他愿意限制ICE的一些行动，例如要求该机构进入房屋或企业场所时必须获得司法令状。

在被问及确认问题时，穆林表示：“除非我们正在追捕进入该场所的人，否则将使用司法令状进入房屋和企业场所。我从未含糊其辞，而且我对这一点的看法也没有改变。”

Mullin could be confirmed as soon as Monday evening

A group giving a voice to victims impacted by illegal immigrant crime says that more than 300 families who have been the victim of weak border policies are urging members of Congress to support the nomination of Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., to serve as Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security.
The American Border Story (TABS), which works to give a platform for those who have lost loved ones as the result of crimes committed by individuals who are unlawfully present in the United States, wrote a letter to GOP Senate Majority Leader John Thune and Democratic Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on Monday, shortly before the Senate is expected vote to confirm Mullin.
“For the families we represent, border security is not an abstract policy debate,” TABS said in its Monday letter. “Senator Mullin has demonstrated a clear understanding of these stakes. Throughout his time in Congress, he has consistently engaged on issues related to border security, public safety, and the operational challenges facing federal and local authorities. Just as importantly, he has shown a willingness to listen directly to impacted families and elevate their concerns in policy discussions. We believe Senator Mullin would bring to the Department of Homeland Security strong leadership, practical experience, and a clear commitment to protecting American communities.”

The group praised Mullin’s background, “coupled with his direct engagement on border-related issues,” and said that the families they represent “are not focused on politics.”
“They are focused on ensuring that no other family has to endure the same tragedy,” the letter concluded, adding that their consensus is Mullin understands “that responsibility” and “the seriousness” that the role DHS Secretary demands.
The U.S. Senator from Oklahoma [survived a key test vote] this weekend, largely along party lines, on his way to becoming the next Homeland Security Secretary. Sens. Martin Heinrich, D-N.M., and [John Fetterman], D-Pa., were the only Democrats who strayed from the party line and voted to confirm Mullin.

Tapped by President [Donald Trump for the role], Mullin still has one more vote to go, and likely won’t be confirmed until Monday evening at the earliest.

Should Mullin survive the final confirmation vote, he will replace DHS Secretary [Kristi Noem], who Trump fired following explosive hearings on the Hill and after the deaths of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti during immigration operations in Minnesota. He would take the reins of an agency that is currently shut down, as Senate Democrats, led by Senate Minority Leader [Chuck Schumer], D-N.Y., have blocked DHS funding five times in their quest to get stringent reforms to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Mullin has suggested he would be willing to put limits on some ICE activity, such as requiring a judicial warrant for the agency to go into houses, or places of business.

“Judicial warrants will be used to go into houses, into place of businesses, unless we’re pursuing someone that enters in that place,” Mullin said amid questions about his confirmation. “I have not mixed words with that, and I haven’t changed my opinion about that.”
