mr. gutierrez. mr. gutierrez: thank you, mr. speaker. what would it be like if the chamber and this government reflected the diversity of the american people? they would be a lot more portraits of women alongside all the portraits of committee chairmen of the past decades. in 2015 it wouldn't be news worthy when a competent intelligent person who happens to be african-american is hired for a job which she is supremely qualified, which happened this week when loretta lynch was sworn in as our 83rd attorney general. and we wouldn't still be talking about unequal pay for equal work. i believe that if there is a country that truly believes in equality, it's time to put our money where our mouths are literally, and express that sense of justice on the most widely used currency in international transaction. last week i introduced the put a woman on the 20 act to build on the grassroots campaign working to bring gender equality to our currency. their public campaign has garnered more than half a million votes in support of putting a woman on a

mr. gutierrez, for five minutes. mr. gutierrez: thank you mr. speaker. the man pictured alongside me will go a long way towards determining who will live in the white house for the next few years. no, he's not a campaign spin doctor. this is a federal judge for the u.s. district court for the southern district of texas, the honorable judge andrew hannon. the lawsuit by 26 republican governors seeking to block the executive actions by the obama administration was filed in his court. he's not ruled on the constitutionality in this case. he ordered a preliminary junction saying the constitutes had standing to bring the suit or at least the state of texas did. and that was enough for him to stop the implementation of the program nationwide and not surprisingly just last week the judge refused the government's request to lift his injunction and allow the plan to move forward. here's the reality. congress mandates that about 400,000 people will be deported this year out of a total of 11 million. the secretary of homeland security developed a plan to choose bet

mr. gutierrez, very eloquent on this esh yu and very good at making statements here in our proceedings. we heard that you -- we're deporting people here that are traffic offenses yet we should be deporting people with duis. are you aware over 13000 people were released out of custody last year because of duis and the previous year it was 15,000 people? between the two years we've had close to 30,000 people being released into the united states because of the orders of this president with the dui convictions? >> well i don't know specifically the numbers you're talking about, but i will tell you that i explained earlier that a good portion of those are court ordered releases. the others are made on a case by case basis depending -- >> you're aware it's close to $30,000 have been released from ice custody for dui convictions -- >> i presume you're looking at something we provided you. >> thank you very much. >> i yield the time to the gentleman from florida. thank you. the apprehension detention and removal of illegal aliens my first question if an alien was illegally present in the unite

mr. gutierrez, for five minutes. mr. gutierrez: mr. speaker, this past weekend we witnessed the most gruesome example of authority that's becoming ever more common. hundreds of my grants are missing and fear dead. some more because of the smuggling boat that they were packed on capsized off the coast of libya. it was on the front page of every newspaper. right now along our southern border illegal immigration is at historically low levels but we, too, have a border that's known for smuggling, tragic loss of life, no less embrazened and indifferent than those off the libyan coast. for great opportunity for work and freedom on the other side, migrants are risking their lives in the hopes of living a better life. they're in the peak of illegal immigration to this country a decade or so ago. one person died every day, died of dehydration in the desert or died in trucks or box cars or perished as stowaways. now we're hearing about the beast, the train carrying my grants from mexico to the border with our country. think about hundreds of peo

mr. gutierrez as one of the four ex-im employees i mentioned before. he has a dubious honor of being the first of these four to be formally charged in bribery. between 2006 and 2015 helped loans to impax association. mr. gutierrez secured between $1 million and $5 million to finance impax association projects in both mexico and the dominican republic in june 2007. similar guarantees were also promised to jamaica and the turks and caicos. it is clear, unfortunately, that this is not an isolated incident. it only gets worse. in 2009, former democratic congressman william j. jefferson from louisiana was convicted for accepting bribes from u.s. telecom company a nigerian company. jefferson was even videotaped receiving $100,000 at the ritz carlton hotel right across the river in arlington. when federal investigators raided jefferson's house, they discovered over $90,000 in cash stashed away in his freezer. this does not take into account a former employee, maureen who was indicted for accepting $73,500 in bribes to help the nigerian company. i don't know a
