nbcnews.com/politics/congress/live-blog/senators-begin-dhs-secretary-mayorkas-impeachment-trial-live-updates-rcna147038
Quick Glance: Senate's Decision on Impeachment Charges Against Mayorkas
- The Senate rejected the impeachment charges against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, halting the House Republicans' effort to impeach the Cabinet secretary over his management of the US-Mexico border.
- With Democrats contending that the articles were unconstitutional, senators voted to dismiss both impeachment charges and conclude the trial.
- Senate Republicans had called for a full impeachment trial after the House narrowly voted in February to impeach Mayorkas for his border actions.
- Republicans argued that President Joe Biden was ineffective at the border, while Democrats suggested accepting a bipartisan Senate compromise instead of impeaching Mayorkas to reduce illegal immigrants.

China's government is helping fuel the U.S. fentanyl crisis, House panel reveals
axios.com/2024/04/16/china-fentanyl-crisis-us-house-investigation
Quick Glance: China's Subsidization of Fentanyl Production Intensifying Crisis in the U.S.
- A report from a special House committee states that China is fueling the Fentanyl crisis in the U.S. directly by subsidizing the manufacturing of materials used by traffickers outside the country to produce the drug.
- The committee found that the Chinese government provides tax rebates for the production of specific Fentanyl precursors and other synthetic drugs as long as they are sold outside of China.
- The report highlights that China not only subsidizes the manufacturing of precursor chemicals but also thwarts investigations into illegal manufacturers by warning the targets when formal requests for assistance are made by U.S. law enforcement.
- Former Attorney General William Barr recommended that the U.S. should leverage its trade and economic power to push for stronger enforcement from Chinese authorities, and victims should take civil actions against companies and individuals involved in distributing the precursors and synthetic drugs.

Quick Glance: Arizona Republicans foil another effort to repeal 1864 abortion ban
- Arizona House Republicans once again thwarted an attempt on Wednesday to repeal the state's nearly complete abortion ban from 1864, leaving Democrats without a vote on their repeal bill for the second consecutive week.
- Despite facing pressure from influential conservatives, such as former President Trump and Senate hopeful Kari Lake, urging GOP leaders to lift the ban, the Republicans blocked the repeal.
- State House Democrats made a procedural maneuver to attempt to suspend House rules and bring the repeal bill to the floor for discussion. However, this action was rejected by the GOP majority, with only one Republican, Representative Matt Gress, crossing party lines to support bringing up the repeal bill.
- A similar endeavor to repeal the ban was obstructed by Republicans last week. Following persistent criticism of the law by Democrats both within and outside the state throughout the week, prominent figures like Trump and Lake recognized the political risks and advocated for a change in direction within the Legislature.
