President Barack Obama will continue his tour to sell his massive executive amnesty on Tuesday in Chicago with Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL), considered the godfather of the pro-amnesty movement, and Mayor Rahm “godfather” Emanuel (D).
According to a Chicago Sun-Times report, Obama’s trip will be part of an “aggressive sales job to win public support for bypassing Congress and issuing immigration executive orders to” give temporary amnesty and work permits to million of illegal immigrants.
Emanuel, Obama’s former White House Chief of Staff, and Gutierrez have vowed to make Chicago, where Obama got his start in community organizing and politics, the model city for the implementation of Obama’s executive amnesty. Gutierrez and Emanuel have long been rivals, but the two joined forces on amnesty this year, with Gutierrez even becoming a co-chair of Emanuel’s reelection campaign.
