Gutiérrez: “La Legislatura tiene que establecer un estándar alto en contra de la discriminación, en contra de la exclusion, en contra de los chivos expiatorios y los esteriotipos, uno que refleje los altos instintos morales, éticos y equitativos del pueblo puertorriqueño”.
Gutierrez: "Five years after Postville, we still need a legal immigration system that works and we still need labor rights and legalization extended to vulnerable workers like those who worked the line in the plant that day."
A bipartisan group of eight Members from the U.S. House of Representatives released the following statement today regarding their efforts for comprehensive reform of the U.S. immigration system:
I am proud to serve as the Chairman of the Immigration Task Force of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus and I have previously also served on the Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Immigration and as the Chair of the Immigration Task Force of the Democratic Caucus.
I have worked to restore economic stability, help homeowners facing foreclosure, protect consumers, protect taxpayers, and strengthen regulations for the financial institutions whose risky behavior contributed to the economic collapse in 2008.
I have made it a priority to ensure that the civil rights and civil liberties of all Americans are upheld as we work to protect our nation from threats.
