DHS Sec Makes Promise On Afghanistan Evacuations

(Washington, DC) -- The homeland security secretary is promising the U.S. won't leave behind any Americans or Afghan allies.

Alejandro Mayorkas said the mission isn't over until all Americans who want to leave are out of Afghanistan, along with those who assisted the U.S. He added the same principle applies to lawful permanent residents and those who aided the American military.  

His remarks come after the U.S. ended its two-decade long war this past week.
