SOLIDARITY ALERT: Bring Our Local 100 Brother Home and Give Him Due Process

International Association of Sheet Metal, Air, Rail and Transportation Workers (SMART), an AFL-CIO affiliated union, asks union members and working people to contact their Members of Congress to ask lawmakers to support the Supreme Court’s order to bring SMART Local 100 union member Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia back to the United States. Kilmar is a legally protected Maryland resident who was mistakenly deported without due process and is being detained at a maximum security prison in El Salvador.                             

Kilmar is a SMART Local 100 first-year apprentice who currently works full-time to support his young family. He came to the United States as a teenager 15 years ago, and according to his attorneys, he was legally authorized to live and work in this country and had fully complied with his responsibilities under the law. He did not have a criminal record in the United States.
