An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Rectify wrongful deportation, ensure Abrego Garcia's safe return

21 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

I am deeply concerned that Kilmar Abrego Garcia may already be dead or missing while wrongfully detained in El Salvador, and that the government's actions are merely smoke and mirrors to conceal such a tragic outcome for now. Mr. Abrego Garcia, who had lived legally in the United States with a work permit and committed no crimes, now languishes in one of the most dangerous prisons in the Western Hemisphere through no fault of his own. This egregious error highlights systemic problems in our immigration system that demand accountability and reform. The government's claim that his removal was lawful, despite acknowledging an "administrative error," defies logic and the rule of law. Immediate steps must be taken to secure Mr. Abrego Garcia's safe return to the United States and reunification with his family, including his American wife and child, or provide definitive proof of his wellbeing if he remains wrongfully detained. Failing to rectify this injustice could enable further human rights abuses and undermine faith in our legal institutions. I urge swift and decisive action to uphold Mr. Abrego Garcia's rights, investigate how such a grave mistake occurred, and implement safeguards to prevent similar tragedies in the future. The integrity of our nation's immigration policies and commitment to human dignity are at stake. Justice delayed is justice denied.
