Pushback to ensure Trump regime follows the law in deportation.

The Trump administration is attempting a horrific power grab by refusing to return the more than 200 men who were unlawfully sent to a prison camp in El Salvador. Your constituents demand that you take decisive action to ensure all people impacted by the Alien Enemies Act are afforded due process — and that you follow the lead of Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen by visiting El Salvador to conduct welfare checks to ensure these men are alive and safe. Kilmar Abrego Garcia was among hundreds of men who were unlawfully disappeared by the Trump administration without due process. Most of them, as we are now learning, had no criminal record or ties to criminal gangs. Kilmar even had a court order that protected him from deportation, and the administration has admitted his deportation was “an administrative error.” A federal judge has already found probable cause to hold the Trump administration in contempt for willfully defying orders to return the men deported under the Alien Enemies Act, but the administration has made it clear that it has no intention of returning anyone it has unlawfully sent to a mega-prison in El Salvador, and that it will continue to pay millions in U.S. taxpayer dollars to a foreign government to make people disappear. We need you to push back. Senator Van Hollen was the first elected official to travel to El Salvador to ensure that Kilmar is safe and to demand his return — you must follow suit because this affects us all across state and party lines. As a constituent, I am urging you to travel to El Salvador to ensure the well-being and safety of the men wrongfully imprisoned abroad and to pressure the administration to accept everyone’s right to due process. The administration’s actions on immigration are opening the American public’s eyes to a dangerous overreach of power — one that targets immigrants today but threatens everyone’s rights if we don’t push back. That includes you. You have been duly elected to protect the interests of your constituents, of the American people.
