Democrats push for US human rights review in El Salvador
- A group of Democratic senators in the U.S. Senate put forward a resolution on Thursday aimed at prompting the State Department to investigate human rights conditions in El Salvador, particularly regarding the treatment of recently deported individuals who are currently imprisoned.
- The resolution arose after recent deportations of men, including Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly sent from Maryland and remains imprisoned there.
- The resolution addresses human rights concerns related to the detention of deported migrants in a high-security facility and is endorsed by Senators Van Hollen, Kaine, and Schumer.
- Kaine cautioned Salvadoran President Bukele that the U.S. Will not overlook allegations of human rights abuses against American citizens and will continue to hold them accountable.
- The resolution could affect future U.S. Security assistance to El Salvador but requires some Republican support to pass, and no Republicans have endorsed it yet.
