From Breitbart: Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) says Democrats are “organizing here in El Salvador” to ensure the release of 29-year-old Kilmar Abrego Garcia despite allegations that he is a member of the MS-13 gang, a domestic abuser, and previously involved in human trafficking.
Garcia, along with Reps. Maxwell Frost (D-FL), Yassamin Ansari (D-AZ), and Maxine Dexter (D-OR), traveled to El Salvador this week to demand President Nayib Bukele release Abrego Garcia from law enforcement custody.
We have met now with the U.S. Embassy here, the ambassador. We’re meeting with advocates on the ground, we are organizing here in El Salvador. We’ve talked to Abrego Garcia’s family which is heartbreaking and more importantly, we are here to raise awareness that Kilmar needs to come home, we need to build support here in El Salvador but also the United States. He must come home. [Emphasis added]

Rep. Maxwell Frost, 28, a gun control activist and progressive Democrat from Florida just elected to Congress in 2022, announced Monday morning, “We have arrived in El Salvador. Trump is illegally arresting, jailing, & deporting people with no due process. We must hold the Administration accountable for these illegal acts and demand Kilmar’s release. Today it’s him, tomorrow it could be anyone else.”

Rep. Yassamin Ansari (D-AZ), 33, an Iranian-American who was elected to U.S. Congress in the November 2024 election, is also in El Salvador.
Ansari posted a video on X Monday and claimed, “Just wrapped up a productive day here in El Salvador advocating for Kilmar Abrego Garcia and so many others who are illegally imprisoned. We aren’t letting Trump off the hook–we will keep putting the pressure until he respects due process and the Supreme Court.”
