What Congressman Gutiérrez is doing with Our Nation’s Future is so critical right now. The Congressman's previous efforts of mass voter registrations, citizen naturalization, mobilization, traveling the country like he did in 2008, 2009, 2010 to push for DACA, which we got, will be doing that again. Why? So Latinos, Asians, African, and Arab voters are treated with the same dignity and respect that their community deserves.

There is no better champion for immigrants and workers than Luis Gutiérrez. His dedication and tenacity inspire us to do more even when the odds look tough. Congressman Gutiérrez has the ability to combine eternal optimism with dogged pragmatism, which is unique and required for all of us to change our society for a more perfect union.

Luis Gutiérrez inspired me to vote for the first time, as a young Boricua man in Chicago, when he ran for Congress. His independent streak has not always made him popular in D.C. but it earned him the trust of millions across the nation. Seeing him in action today, meeting with leaders and families across the country, as he unfolds Our Nation’s Future, tells you why he’s a legend. He is an organizer at heart; the leader who has the will, the champion who has the punch to knock out a path for citizenship for our nation’s immigrant’s. Congressman Gutiérrez is a true maverick; he is a modern-day founding father. It’s an honor to stand by his side.
