opponents, the
U.S. also
bears
responsibility
for the
state’s
ability to
carry out
violence
against the
population,”

the Committee
in Solidarity

People of El

(CISPES). </p>

“The U.S. must
immediately
take steps to
address its
complicity in
the human
rights abuses,
violations of
due process,
and political
persecution in
El Salvador by
immediately
ending all
U.S. military
and police
assistance to
El Salvador,
including U.S.
promotion of
militarized
policing and
mass
incarceration,”
said Brigitte
Gynther of SOA
Watch. </p>

“Working-class
families in
marginalized
neighborhoods
already have
to live in
constant fear
of the gangs.
Now, they are
disproportionately susceptible to arbitrary arrests, prolonged
detention, and
a politicized
justice
system. What
will be the
response to
this worsening
situation?
Many
Salvadorans
will naturally
leave their
homes or even
the country to
avoid becoming
a victim of a
lawless
government,
resulting in
more mass
displacement
from El
Salvador.” -
