During a recent House Homeland Security Committee hearing, Rep. Robert Garcia raised concerns over the treatment of Andry José Hernández Romero, a Venezuelan asylum-seeker who has been missing for over a month. Garcia confronted Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, accusing her of violating the Fifth Amendment by transferring Hernández Romero to a notorious Salvadoran prison without due process. This situation has drawn attention to broader issues surrounding the treatment of LGBTQ+ asylum seekers and the implications of deportation policies in the United States.
"You said that you're committed to complying with the Constitution, which we, of course, all appreciate. Now we all know that the Fifth Amendment states ... no person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law."
"Now, Madam Secretary, you are violating that amendment as we speak and you're breaking your oath. We cannot deport U.S. citizens without due process."
