Gutierrez decides to seek another term in Congress

Associated Press - August 16, 2007 11:04 AM ET

CHICAGO (AP) - Congressman Luis Gutierrez says he's changed his mind and he will seek another term in Washington.

The Chicago Democrat had said he wasn't going to run, partly to spend more time with his wife, who had been having health problems.

But during a morning appearance in Chicago, Gutierrez said she's better and he wants to run again because he still has work to do on immigration reform.

Gutierrez says a letter from community groups and other elected officials urging him to run helped change his mind.

Gutierrez has been a leader in Congress on immigration issues.
