| Petition to Congress: We urge you to stop the Trump administration from sending people to El Salvador's mega-prison. We urge you to call for the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. End these renditions and protect the U.S. Constitution. |
While meeting with El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele this week, Trump said he supports deporting U.S. citizens. He also made clear that he had no plans to bring home a Maryland man that his administration mistakenly sent to a horrific El Salvador mega-prison along with nearly 300 other people.
The federal government is planning to deny more people due process and send them to El Salvador and other countries where they can't access courts to challenge their imprisonment. Trump's actions are a serious breach of human rights, our system of laws, and the foundations of our democracy. Congress must demand an end to these horrific renditions.
Sign the petition: Stop Trump's renditions to El Salvador's mega-prison!
Last week, the Supreme Court lifted lower federal court orders that barred the Trump admin from sending nearly 300 people to El Salvador as part of a March 15 executive order.
In a pointed dissent, Justice Sonia Sotomayor called the SCOTUS decision "indefensible." She warned that non-citizens and citizens, "could be taken off the streets, forced onto planes, and confined to foreign prisons with no opportunity for redress if judicial review is denied unlawfully before removal. History is no stranger to such lawless regimes, but this Nation's system of laws is designed to prevent, not enable, their rise."
Sotomayor's warnings were confirmed by Trump this week. All while Trump's ICE Director says he wants deportations to run like "Amazon Prime for human beings." This is a crisis moment for our country and our democracy.
Sign the petition: Congress must take a stand against Trump's renditions to foreign prisons before it's too late.
