The Maryland Senator has vehemently opposed the Trump administration’s removal of Abrego Garcia, calling his arrest “adduction.” (Related: Exclusive: GOP has launched a survey of taxpayer-funded groups.
“My hope is to visit Kilmer, check on his happiness and have constructive conversations with government officials about his release,” Van Hollen said Tuesday. According to NBC News. The senator seeking a meeting with El Salvador President Naive Bukere believes Central American leaders will “rethink as they understand the full narrative of this illegal detention.”

However, Abrego Garcia had no legal status while living in the United States, but he has very little American citizenship.
After illegally moving to the United States in 2011, Abrego Garcia eventually settled in Maryland and married an American citizen. In 2019, Salvador citizens were arrested at the Prince George County Police Station and were accused of carrying the MS-13 gang member tie by informants. Abrego Garcia received an expulsion order, but later managed to obtain withholding tax for removal. This successfully banned his deportation in El Salvador and earned similar benefits to the asylum that allowed him to work in the United States.
“The senator was going to say a husband who is a US citizen,” a spokesman for Van Hollen’s office told the Daily Callenor News Foundation.
Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested Abrego Garcia in the Baltimore area on March 12th. On March 15, he told his wife that he would be transferred to the Terrorism Confinement Centre (CECOT), El Salvador’s largest security megaprison, built to hold recorded MS-13 gang banggers and other infamous crime syndicates.
Abrego Garcia’s deportation sparked a stir from Democrats after the Trump administration admitted in court documents that the removal to El Salvador was the result of a mismanagement of the agency. He banned tax withheld from the order of dismissal from El Salvador.
However, the White House has stood strong by the deportation of Abrego Garcia, claiming he is a member of the MS-13 gang, which is illegally living in the United States, and the administration says he is a citizen of El Salvador, currently under Salvador custody.
At a meeting with White House officials on Monday, Buquere confirmed that Abrego Garcia would not be transferred to the US.
Van Hollen formally requested that the Salvador government arrange a meeting with Buquer, as it is not deterred. in His letter At the Salvador embassy, the senator confirmed that he had met Abrego Garcia’s wife, mother and brother. Whether Buquere’s government is giving him time or not, he is currently landing in the Central American country in the hopes of highlighting the plight of Abrego Garcia.
On Tuesday, the day Van Hollen confirmed to visit foreign countries on behalf of illegal immigrants, Rachel Morin’s accused was found guilty of rape and murder. Like Abrego Garcia, Morin was a Maryland resident. Unlike Abrego Garcia, she was an American citizen.
Morin’s mother, Patty Morin, confirmed in an interview that Van Hollen never contacted her or members of the Morin family as her daughter was brutally murdered by illegal immigrants from El Salvador.
“He didn’t call our family, he didn’t give the will of sadness,” Patty said. Tuesday night Fox News. “There was no action [by the] In some way, the Democratic Party. ”
“In Maryland, none of the senators did anything to help search for my daughter’s murderer,” Patty continued.
