“The government of Al Salvador is continue to imprison a person where he has no evidence that he has committed a crime and he has not been given any evidence from the United States that he has committed a crime?” Van Holen told reporters after the meeting. “They should just let him go.”
The journey of van Hollen became a flashpoint in the US, the Trump administration rapidly criticized it, while Democrats ralled around Abrego Garcia.
President Donald Trump and Salvadoran President Naib Bukele said this week that he had no basis to send him back, even the US Supreme Court has called the administration to facilitate his return.
Trump officials have said that Abrego GarciaA Salvadoron citizen who was living in Maryland is related to the MS -13 gang, but his lawyers say that the government has not given any evidence of this and Abrego Garcia has never been accused of any crime related to such activity.
Van Hollen, a member of the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee, said, “We have an unjust situation here.” “The Trump administration is lying about Abrego Garcia. American courts have seen the facts.”
Trump officials reiterated on Wednesday that they would not be returned to the United States. White House press secretary Karolin Lewit held a press briefing with a Maryland woman, Rachel Morin’s mother, who was killed by a fugitive from Al Salvador in 2023.
Leavet said in briefing, “It is horrific and tragic that Senator Van Holen and Democrats appreciated their visit to Al Salvador, who are today unable to be unable to get any kind of rituals of general knowledge or sympathy for their own components and our citizens.”
Republican has focused on the victims of the crime committed by people illegally in the US to argue for the immigration crackdown promised by Trump and large -scale exile.
Meanwhile, the Democrats seized what they say to highlight the case that Trump’s said is derogatory to the courts and as Aadhaar voters have encouraged them to give them a tough fight against Trump’s policies. New Jersey Sen Corey Booker, DN.J., is also considering a trip to Al Salvador, as is some house democrats.
“This is a constitutional crisis,” Rape Robert Garcia, D-Calif said, one of the Democrats who is considering a visit. “This is not just about a exile policy. It is about defying the Constitution and the Supreme Court.”
Garcia sent a joint letter with the Rape Maxwell Frost, D-Flow to the R-K chairman of the House Oversite Committee, who requests a Congress delegation to visit the Ebrego Garcia to visit the El Salvador to investigate the status of Ebrego Garcia. Garcia said that if the journey has not been approved, some Democrats still plan to travel to the Central American nation.
Garcia said, “We need to pay attention to the matter. We need to live in Al Salvador. We need to work with the family. We need to work with the Salvadoron government. We need to pressurize the White House to do the right thing,” Garcia said.
Erizona Democrat, Rape Yasamin Ansari wrote in a Wednesday statement that she is planning to travel to Al Salvador to support Ebrego Garcia’s return.
“My parents fled from a ruling rule in Iran, where people ‘disappeared’ – I refuse to sit back and it is also here,” also wrote, who is the youngest woman of Irani American and Congress.
Trump officials renewed their claims that Abrego Garcia was a member of a gang.
Trump’s Seema Caesar Tom Homan said at Fox News “Fox and Friends” that he hates that any Congress representative is going to run Al Salvador. ,
“We got rid of a dangerous person, an Al Salvadoran National was returned to Al Salvador country, so he is home,” Homan said.
Some Republicans have visited the jail along with the jail in support of the efforts of the Trump administration. Rape. Riley Moore, a West Virginia Republican, posted on Tuesday evening that he would visit the jail where Abrego Garcia is being held. He did not mention Abrego Garcia, but said the facility “gives home to the most cruel criminals in the country.”

Republican rape. Jason Smith of House Wes and Means Committee Chairman Missouri also visited the jail. He posted on X that “Thanks to President Trump” Facility “now involves illegal immigrants who broke in our country and did violent works against Americans.”
The fight on Abrego Garcia has also played in the filing of the controversial court, to refer to the government’s refusal, what he is planning to do, if anything, to return it. The Trump administration has called its exile a mistake, but has also argued, essentially, that its conclusion about Abrego Garcia’s affiliation makes them unqualified to protect them from courts.
Since March, Al Salvador has accepted more than 200 Venezuela migrants from the US – who have been accused of gang activity and violent offenses by the Trump administration officials – and have been placed inside the country’s maximum defense gang jail outside Sanalvador. The prison is part of the widespread attempt to tighten the powerful street gang of the country, which has placed 84,000 people behind bars and has made the bouquet very popular at home.
Human rights groups have earlier accused the government of the first called that they are under those who went to jail for “systematic use of torture and other misconduct”. The officials there deny the wrongdoing.
Van Holen said after his meeting that Abrego Garcia was “illegally kidnapped from the United States and no crime.”
Van Holen said, “I will pressurize here in the remaining time and put pressure on it.”
