"I promised them [Abrego Garcia's family] that I would do everything I could to get him out. I won't stop trying. This is an unsustainable and unjust moment."
"The criminal illegal immigrant is already home - he's a Salvadoran citizen. Where was his [Van Hollen's] concern for Maryland constituents put at risk by the many other illegal immigrants allowed to roam free until now?"
Sen. Chris Van Hollen was denied access to Kilmar Abrego Garcia at a Salvadoran prison where Garcia, an alleged MS-13 member, is detained. Van Hollen recently met with El Salvador's vice president to lobby for Garcia's release, declaring the situation unsustainable. His efforts have drawn criticism, especially with rising concerns regarding migrant-related crimes back in Maryland. Notably, Abrego Garcia's wife had previously sought a restraining order against him, raising questions about his character. The Trump administration and other critics have pointed to local crime incidents, including a recent high-profile murder, as reasons for questioning Van Hollen's priorities.
