00:00I support the efforts and leadership of Senator Chris Van Hollen, who is trying to meet with
00:28the President of El Salvador while he is here in the country.
00:33President should accept that meeting request and have a real discussion as to when Mr. Obrego
00:41Garcia is going to be returned to his family in the United States of America.
00:47The Supreme Court has made clear that Mr. Obrego Garcia should not have been deported.
00:53In fact, the Trump administration has acknowledged that fact, and so they need to comply with
01:01the Supreme Court's directive or the Supreme Court needs to enforce its order aggressively,
01:08which should include contempt.
