Tonight, chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Immigration Task Force Representative Luis Gutierrez (D-IL)—along with Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-AZ) and Rep. Nydia Velazquez (D-NY)—will hold a national town hall telephonic briefing to “discuss a progressive outline for immigration reform legislation.”

Picking up on the momentum from Department of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano’s speech last week in which she emphasized immigration reform as an imperative, the Reform Immigration FOR America campaign has organized nearly 900 house parties tonight across the country around this event. Immigration advocates expect Rep. Gutierrez to propose an immigration bill in the months ahead.
