(Posted By Uriel Rivera)

More than 1,000 Angelenos packed Our Lady of Angels Church downtown Los Angeles this evening to hear Representative Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) talk about immigration reform. Mr. Gutierrez accompanied by his wife spoke about the moral imperative to approve immigration reform. "No man, not even the President of the United States, can break what God has created," stated Mr. Gutierrez, referring to families torn apart by deportations and raids. Others in attendance included, Rep. Roybal-Allard, Rep. Chu, Maria Elena Durazo, Angelica Salas, Father Estrada, Eddie Sotelo "El Piolin", LAPD Chief Beck, Gloria Saucedo, Sister Gail Young, Father Giovanni, Father John, Rev. Eric Lee, and many others.
