CNN Ignores Dem Congressman Saying Pass Senate Bill Or Women Will Be Raped

CNN Ignores Dem Congressman Saying Pass Senate Bill Or Women Will Be Raped | NewsBusters:
"CNN has completely ignored remarks from a Democratic congressman that women will be raped unless immigration reform passes.

At a Monday town hall, Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) stated why he is voting for the Senate immigration bill despite its "harsh conditions": "There's a woman that's going to be raped in a field somewhere in America today, because she has no rights in this country, and we need to end that."

"I'd vote for that proposal today," he said of the Senate bill. "I'd vote for it today, even under those harsh conditions. He then explained why:

"Because what we need to understand is today someone's going to die in the desert trying to return to their families. Women and men are going to die in that desert. Someone's going to lose a finger, a hand, an eye, a life today, because an unscrupulous employer is going to put them in harm's way. Someone's going to die."
