Former Reps. Mia Love, Luis Gutirrez join CNN as commentators
Utah Republican and Illinois Democrat land new jobs and voices less than a week after leaving

Reps. Mia Love and Luis Gutiérrez have wasted no time finding new gigs after leaving Congress last week.
Love, a Utah Republican and the only black female Republican in the last Congress, and Gutiérrez, a longtime Chicago-based Democrat, have joined CNN as political commentators.
Both have said previously that while serving in Congress has been the honor of a lifetime, the constraints of the office inhibited them in many ways from focusing more intensely on their top policy objectives and from speaking their minds freely.

Gutiérrez revealed on a CNN panel Monday with Love that he will be working extensively with a top immigration and green card assistance group, the National Partnership for New Americans, who he collaborated with while he was in Congress.
