"The Trump administration is taking decisive action to deport criminal illegal aliens from our nation but reckless sanctuary states like Illinois, Minnesota and New York are actively seeking to obstruct federal immigration enforcement," he continued.
"The governors of these states must explain why they are prioritizing the protection of criminal illegal aliens over the safety of U.S. citizens, and they must be held accountable."
It's likely to be a contentious hearing, with Hochul, Walz and Pritzker all serving as past boogeymen on the left.

The hearing is set to come after a similar event in March, when the House Oversight Committee heard from Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, Denver Mayor Mike Johnston and New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
Comer sent each of the three governors requests for information on their sanctuary policies in April.
Fox News Digital reached out to the three governors for comment.
