Excerpt:
Democrats have finally found a cause they can rally around, and they are falling over themselves to make themselves part of it:
According to Axios:
Two members of House Democratic leadership are trying to send an official congressional delegation to the El Salvadorian prison where the Trump administration is sending deportees, Axios has learned.
Why it matters: Dozens of House Democrats have privately expressed interest in participating in such a trip to protest the Trump administration’s deportation policies, sources tell Axios.
- But while lawmakers could travel to the Central American country informally, a Republican committee chair’s approval is needed to send an official congressional delegation, or CODEL.
- A CODEL would provide the members with crucial oversight powers and security resources.
