congressman raul grijalva. thank you for your time today congressman.>> thank you very much. >> john: let me just start with a hypothetical. if i believe that the taxes on millionaires are a bad thing and i want to drill in national parks and end the public school system what is wrong with creating an organization because we have free speech to push an issue ad trumpeting how bad taxes for millionaires are. >> well, it insults the intelligence of the american people and it insults the intelligence of the american voter. you could have a variety of schemes to avert disclosure and keep the money in the dark and keep it hidden. at the very minimum if that were to occur at the very minimum who is paying for it, who are the people behind it, and what are the names associated with it. then the intelligence of the american people can work its magic and begin to connect the dots and understand that the people behind those ads trumping all these things are exactly the people who are benefiting from defeating that candidate or the president in this instance. >> j

host: congressman raul grijalva. a democrat, good morning.aller: we talked a lot about the legal immigration. a lot of time it is emphasized about the hispanic population. they are just part of the illegal immigration issue. there are a lot of european illegal immigrants that i think a lot of people forget about. it is racism when you single out immigration and immigration laws. there is this big push when you are only talking about mexico, arizona, and texas. i think you are really talking about hispanic immigration versus illegal immigration. guest: maybe 50% of people that are classified undocumented in this country are mexican. asian, shall european, irish -- central european, irish, and the list goes on. when we talk about the issue of immigration reform, the more -- we have made this issue so myopic, an issue that affects 12 million americans in this country. when you cobble together a solution for this, it is a cross-section of america. host: where is congress on this issue? guest: i thought the decision and the admonishment by the cou

joining me now is arizona congressman raul grijalva, cochair of the progressive caucus and telemundo anchor jose diaz-balart. first of all, i want to start with your reaction to today's news. >> applaud the president. courageous, historic. and very needed at this time. to indicate to our nation as a whole that this issue that has been such a divisive issue, that has been promoted through hate and division, that these young people are our family and the president's order gives them the opportunity that they've earned. i think it's historic. i'm very proud of this president. i respect his decision. he used political capital. and some say took a risk. but this was humanitarian. it was necessary. and it's good policy. and i'm not only appreciative, very proud of this president. >> let me ask you this before i go to jose. you are in probably the toughest state in terms of some of the worst immigration policies from my perspective. i've marched out there with you and others. how will this effect people in your district in arizona? >> it lifts this pail of uncertainty, doubt. great for fami

joining me tonight is congressman raul grijalva of arizona who is also the co-chair of the progressive caucus. i appreciate your time. >> thank you, ed. i appreciate you having me here. >> this is such an important issue for the country because if we don't get this right, where do we move from here? what does the next generation do? i want to start with the arizona law. and this ruling by the supreme court. it still says racial profiling is going to happen and it doesn't do anything to curb that. are you troubled by that? >> no, i think that's a poison aspect of the decision. it leaves open the possibilities for persons like joe arpaio in my state who sees that as no consequence and civil liberties and civil rights as no consequence, so that's why he's in court, to abuse that police authority that local officials have. we have great people in our state, sheriffs, police chiefs across our state, who are saying that this law was wrong from the beginning, and that it was a liability for local communities. >> what do you make of jan brewer's response? >> this law was delusional when it beg
