Republicans deny Democrats' requests for El Salvador oversight trips
- House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer denied a request from Democrats Robert Garcia and Maxwell Frost to visit the Terrorism Confinement Center in El Salvador, stating it was "absurd" given their previous actions regarding President Joe Biden's border policies.
- Garcia and Frost aimed to check on detainees, including Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was deported without due process, according to their request.
- Comer labeled Abrego Garcia as a foreign MS-13 gang member, citing a 2019 arrest, although he has not been charged in the U.S. And his ties to the gang are disputed by his family and lawyers.
- Republicans had recently visited El Salvador, while Comer indicated that House Democrats can travel individually, but with fewer resources than a congressional delegation would provide.
