Senator Chris Van Hollen has formally requested President Trump to aid in the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland resident wrongfully deported to El Salvador. Van Hollen criticized the Trump administration for ignoring a Supreme Court ruling that necessitated Garcia's return and for allowing his imprisonment without a valid legal basis. During a recent visit to El Salvador, he met Garcia and learned that Salvadoran officials would likely release him if prompted by the Trump administration, highlighting the complexities surrounding deportation agreements and due process.
"In the letter, Mr. Van Hollen wrote that he believed that Salvadoran officials would release Mr. Abrego Garcia if the Trump administration requested it."
"The Trump administration's whole argument is this sham claim that El Salvador is a sovereign country... But the government of El Salvador says exactly the opposite."
