He criticized the Trump administration for failing to present evidence in court linking Garcia to gang activity, asserting that due process is vital for all.
Van Hollen stated that even if Garcia has a questionable record, it does not negate his rights. He called on the Trump administration and Republicans to present their claims in court rather than on social media, reinforcing the importance of upholding the rule of law.

The Economist: Donald Trump wants a certain kind of immigrant: the uber-rich
Donald Trump advocates for attracting wealthy immigrants to the U.S., arguing that the current "golden visa" program is inefficient and underpriced. He suggests that the sale of citizenship, while controversial, could be improved to better serve the economy.
