Luis Gutierrez: 'We Will Not Be Deterred' - Breitbart
by Tony Lee 2-17-15
The morning after a federal judge halted President Barack Obama’s executive amnesty, Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) proclaimed that amnesty advocates will not be deterred.
Gutierrez said he will continue to tell illegal immigrants to prepare to sign up for Obama’s executive amnesty.
“We may be delayed, but we will not be deterred,” Gutierrez said in a Tuesday statement. “In our neighborhoods, this is about defending families and making sure that children who are U.S. citizens grow up with their parents. It is that simple. And there is a great deal of passion and determination in the fight to defend families. I am telling immigrant communities to keep preparing to sign up millions of families for protection from deportation.”
Despite Hanen’s ruling, Gutierrez claimed that “there is no good legal case to be made by the President’s opponents and legislation the hardliners are putting forward in Washington is going nowhere.” He said that “politically and practically the idea of deporting or driving out 11 million people and their families is absurd” and predicted that the effort to defund Obama’s executive amnesty “is going to backfire big-time on Republican hardliners.”
