Sen. Chris Van Hollen's efforts to secure the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland resident wrongfully deported to El Salvador, face significant hurdles. Abrego Garcia was deported despite a judge's previous protections granted over safety concerns. El Salvador's government has rejected Van Hollen's requests to visit Abrego Garcia in custody, who is being held in a mega-prison known for its harsh conditions. The Supreme Court has ordered the Trump administration to facilitate his return, which has been ignored. The situation raises critical issues regarding U.S. immigration enforcement and diplomatic relations.
This is a miscarriage of justice, and we will continue to fight for Kilmar Abrego Garcia's right to return home to his family despite the obstacles we face.
El Salvador's president, Nayib Bukele, labeled discussions about Abrego Garcia's return as 'preposterous,' highlighting the tense relations between the U.S. and Salvadoran governments.
