House Democrats Demand Kilmar Abrego Garcia's Return in El Salvador

A group of House Democrats, including Reps. Robert Garcia, Maxwell Frost, Yassamin Ansari, and Maxine Dexter, traveled to El Salvador to demand the release of Kilmar Abrego García, who was deported from the U.S. despite a Supreme Court order protecting him from removal. The Trump administration has refused to comply with the Court's directive to facilitate Abrego García's return, citing a lack of cooperation from El Salvador's government. The case has become a flashpoint in debates over immigration, executive authority, and due process, with critics accusing the administration of defying constitutional norms. While Democrats frame the deportation as a violation of due process and a constitutional crisis, the White House contends that Abrego García was deported due to alleged gang affiliations and insists it cannot force El Salvador to act. The effort by lawmakers aims to maintain public attention on the case and pressure both governments to resolve it, with legal proceedings ongoing following a federal court's denial of the administration’s recent appeal.
