Maryland Lawmaker Says He Was Denied Access to Abrego Garcia
- In May 2025, U.S. Representative Glenn Ivey traveled to El Salvador but was blocked from meeting with one of his constituents, a deportee being held in a Salvadoran prison.
- The denial followed El Salvadoran authorities requiring a permit despite Ivey arranging the visit through senior officials and speaking with the Salvadoran ambassador.
- Abrego Garcia was deported from the United States in March 2025 due to an administrative error and is now held in a maximum-security prison in Santa Ana, about 70 kilometers from the capital.
- US authorities describe Abrego Garcia as an MS-13 gang member, a claim his lawyers deny, while US courts have called the deportation process unlawful and some halted further deportations.
- Ivey’s visit sought to ensure Abrego Garcia’s well-being and legal rights, highlighting tensions between US and Salvadoran governments and raising concerns about migrants’ due process.
