Clinton receives major endorsement from Latino lawmaker

Leading immigration reformer Rep. Luis Guitierrez, D-Ill., endorsed Hillary Clinton on Monday prior to her appearance at a major forum on the issue.

The congressman described Clinton as “the only presidential candidate with a long and strong history of fighting for [the Latino] community,” citing her experience registering Texan Latinos to vote in the 1970s, her work with Hispanic children while serving as first lady and her current work to improve healthcare and education access for Hispanic families and DREAMers.
