Without reform, Bush will be 'last Republican president'
Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) said Tuesday that Americans would never elect another president from the GOP if the party fails to act on immigration reform.
Gutierrez, one of the most ardent supporters of an immigration overhaul, brought a poster to the House floor depicting Republican Presidents Abraham Lincoln and George W. Bush.
"I give you George W. Bush: The man who will go down in history as the last Republican president in American history," Gutierrez said.
Gutierrez argued that if the growing Hispanic population continues to vote primarily for Democrats, the GOP would have difficulty winning future national elections. He quoted recent remarks by Chamber of Commerce President Tom Donohue that Republicans "shouldn't bother to run a candidate in 2016" if they don't move on immigration reform.
