Mayorkas, a Cuban immigrant and the first U.S. Cabinet official impeached in nearly 150 years, was narrowly indicted and faced the possibility of a trial following Wednesday's Senate proceedings.
Sen. Butler criticized Republicans for choosing impeachment over policy discussions and accused them of avoiding the nation's challenges. Sen. Padilla labeled the trial as a time-wasting effort, urging for a swift dismissal of the case against Mayorkas.
