Elise Stefanik, the powerful GOP House Conference Chair, has vowed to subpoena the Department of Homeland Security for information about secret flights of migrants into New York state if Republicans regain control of Congress following this fall\u2019s midterm elections. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to get all data, all information from the Department of Homeland Security, from any federal agency involved in this smuggling operation, this human trafficking operation paid for by the taxpayers in the dark of night,\u201d Stefanik told The Post in an exclusive interview. <\/p>\n<p>The Post exclusively revealed last fall that charter flights originating in Texas were landing at Westchester County Airport \u2013 usually in the early hours of the morning \u2013 to help the federal government offset a crush of migrants at the US-Mexico border.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The flights were briefly suspended after The Post\u2019s initial expos\u00e9, but had resumed by last month.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve gotten little to no response from all of our outreach to [Homeland Security] Secretary [Alejandro] Mayorkas,\u201d Stefanik said. \u201cThis is going to be in an oversight capacity. In a Republican majority, you can demand and subpoena those records. We intend to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After the migrants land in Westchester, they are put on buses and dispersed across the tri-state area. One source told The Post in October that ultimate migrant destinations included locations in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, upstate Newburgh, and Bridgeport and Danbury in Connecticut. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/alejandro-mayorkas-getty-01.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas \" class=\"wp-image-22465461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/alejandro-mayorkas-getty-01.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/alejandro-mayorkas-getty-01.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/alejandro-mayorkas-getty-01.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Republicans feel like Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas is leaving them in the dark with unanswered questions.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">The Washington Post via Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/elise-stefanik-getty-02.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Stefanik\" class=\"wp-image-22465374\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/elise-stefanik-getty-02.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/elise-stefanik-getty-02.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/elise-stefanik-getty-02.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Stefanik wants detailed report of the secret flights bringing in immgrants. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">The Washington Post via Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In April, one busload of teenagers tracked by The Post drove the length of the New Jersey Turnpike before letting off its passengers at the Walt Whitman Service Area in Cherry Hill, just across the Delaware River from Philadelphia.
