Mayorkas Could Potentially Lose Thousands in Salary If Impeachment Trial Is Successful
Impeachment Trial Set to Begin at 1 PM
The impeachment trial of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas will officially commence at 1 PM today. All 100 senators will be sworn in as jurors during the trial.
Salary Reduction Possible If Impeached
If the Senate votes to impeach Mayorkas, he could potentially lose over 4000 per month in salary. This would amount to a total reduction of over $50,000 per year.
Mayorkas currently earns an annual salary of $203,500. If the impeachment vote passes, his salary could drop by more than 50,000.
Home Purchase Prior to Impeachment
According to Forbes, Mayorkas purchased a home in Washington D.C. for $1.6 million in 2014. This was just one year after joining the Obama administration.
Current Salary Below Secretary of Homeland Security Position
It is worth noting that Mayorkas' current salary is less than what is typically paid for the position of Secretary of Homeland Security. The salary for this position is approximately $200,000.
