Ansari Statement on Kilmar Abrego Garcia Release from ICE Custody

WASHINGTON – Yesterday, following the news that Kilmar Abrego Garcia was released from ICE custody after District Judge Paula Xinis’ ruling, Representative Yassamin Ansari (AZ-03) released the following statement:

“Due process at work. I traveled to El Salvador because Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s case was always about more than one man. It was about all of our constitutional rights. Donald Trump and his Administration made a mistake, blatantly violating our laws, and it led to months-long torture for Kilmar and his family. We’re fighting for every immigrant wrongfully detained or deported. We need to stay loud.”
