WASHINGTON D.C. – Today, Senator Andy Kim released the following statement demanding the Trump administration follow the rule of law and obey the U.S. Supreme Court’s order that Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia be returned to the United States after being deported:  

“Trump choosing to not secure the return of Mr. Garcia to the United States blatantly ignores the rule of law and is an intentional decision to descend our nation into a constitutional crisis. The Supreme Court has ordered the Trump admin to facilitate Mr. Garcia’s release. It is not just wrong for Trump to ignore Mr. Garcia’s rights as a legal U.S. resident, but a clear signal of this president’s goal to renounce his duties to obey and uphold our constitution.”
