Gutierrez: GOP Immigration Bills About ‘Racial Profiling’ and Putting Latinos ‘in Their Place’

‘These bills are nothing new and they are not really about fighting crime’

GUTIERREZ: "The Republican Party has had Mexican fever. Russia investigation not going well for the dear leader at the White House? 'Hey, let’s whip out that Mexican thing,' as Vice President Pence said. 'Maybe it will keep our voters happy and distracted.' Healthcare not going well? Let’s just hate some Mexicans today. This policy is about going after all of us, whether we are citizens or not of the United States of America. These bills are nothing new and they are not really about fighting crime. They are about racial profiling and putting Latinos, quote, unquote, in their place."
