Summary

Four House Democrats have landed in El Salvador to demand the release of Kilmar Ábrego García, an immigrant wrongly deported despite a court order protecting him. The lawmakers are pushing the Trump administration to comply with the Supreme Court’s ruling, which mandates his return to the U.S., and emphasize his right to due process. Amid growing criticism—even from some Republicans—the delegation highlights the case as a test for democracy and due process in America.
