Maryland lawmaker plans El Salvador trip to visit Kilmar Abrego Garcia
- Democratic Representative Glenn Ivey plans to travel to El Salvador on Friday night to visit Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland resident who was wrongfully deported earlier this year.
- Kilmar Abrego Garcia was removed from the U.S. in error, even though a 2019 court order was in place to prevent his deportation due to threats from local gangs, and there are conflicting explanations for why the removal occurred.
- Abrego Garcia spent 14 years residing in Maryland before his detention on March 12 and subsequent deportation to a supermax prison in El Salvador, where he is currently being held.
- Ivey explained that the purpose of his visit is to seek a meeting with Kilmar to check on his well-being, and he stressed that the Constitution requires compliance in this matter.
- Ivey aims to pressure the administration to follow court orders facilitating Abrego Garcia's return to the U.S. so he can have his day in court.
