A U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) sign stands at the headquarters in Washington, D.C., U.S., on Thursday, Dec. 11, 2014. The U.S. House is set to pass a $1.1 trillion spending bill that includes a banking provision opposed by many Democrats as a giveaway to large institutions. Current funding for the government ends today, and the measure would finance most of the government through September 2015. The DHS, responsible for immigration policy, would be financed only through Feb. 27. Photographer: Andrew Harrer/Bloomberg

From Politico:Â

Karen Olick, chief of staff to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, announced on Monday that she will be leaving for a new, undisclosed opportunity.

Jennifer Higgins, the current associate director of Refugee, Asylum and International Operations at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, will step in as a temporary chief of staff until a new appointment is made, according to officials in the department. Olick plans to leave DHS at the end of the month.

In an email, Mayorkas told DHS officials that Olick â€œhas decided to resign her position and pursue new opportunities. We are grateful to Karen for her service during the critical first nine months of the new Administration.â€

…

The shakeup comes as the Biden administration tries to grapple with the flow of migrants at the southern border. Higgins is a career civil servant and has worked for the federal government for over 20 years whereas Olick was most recently a prominent official at SKDK, the powerful Democratic strategic communications firm. She recently led the firmâ€™s ballot initiative practice.
