Rep. Luis Gutiérrez: Bernie stood with the "anti-immigration" wing of the GOP
...During the conference call, Clinton’s supporters swung punches at Sanders for voting for an amendment that supported a border vigilante group and a bill the Clinton campaign said would have allowed immigrants in the country illegally to be indefinitely detained.
“Sen. Sanders consistently wasn’t there when we needed him the most,” said Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julian Castro, who’s rumored to be on Clinton’s short list for a running mate. “If the past is any indication of what the future holds, then Sen. Sanders will continue to let us down.”
Rep. Luis Gutiérrez, D-Illinois, accused Sanders of standing with the “anti-immigration wing” of the Republican party.
“Many of us have long memories that can help us recognize who we can count on and who let us down when we needed them,” Gutierrez said.
Clinton is in a close caucus race against Sanders in Nevada, where the state population is 27 percent Hispanic. According to the few polls taken in the Lone Star State, she’s leading by double digits in Texas where she already has the support of about half the state’s superdelegates.
