#1 Wiki:
"In June 2013, President Obama nominated Mayorkas as the Deputy Secretary of the United States Department of Homeland Security.[8] Mayorkas' role in managing the EB-5 Visa program was questioned by an Inspector General's report.[9] A meeting with former GreenTech Automotive executive and Virginia governor-elect Terry McAuliffe was also questioned.[10]

On December 16, 2013, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid filed for cloture on Mayorkas' nomination to cut off a filibuster by Republican senators. On December 19, 2013, the Senate voted 55-45 for cloture on his nomination. The next day, the Senate confirmed Mayorkas in a 54-41 vote and he was sworn-in on December 23.[11][12] No Republicans voted yes. Mayorkas reports to Homeland Security Secretary, Jeh Johnson.[13] Mayorkas announced his last official day with DHS is 10/28/16."
