HANES is exporting their products from their 350,000-square-foot El Salvador textile plant to the US.
— you do not get to stand by and watch human rights violations.

Trump administration ADMITS it sent an innocent man to prison in El Salvador — but refuses to do anything about it.
Sadly, not an April Fool's joke.

A refugee who'd been granted LEGAL ASYLUM in the US has been deported without due process to a notoriously violent prison in another country where he has no access to a lawyer. All in violation of a court order.
