Political career
editGutiérrez was a councilman in his hometown of Río Cuarto before serving as Minister of Agriculture, Livestock and Food of Córdoba under Governor Juan Schiaretti from 2007 to 2011. From 2015 to 2019, Gutiérrez was a member of the Legislature of Córdoba for the Union for Córdoba alliance.[1]
Gutiérrez ran for a seat in the lower house of the National Congress in the 2019 legislative election, as the first candidate in the Hacemos por Córdoba list. The list was the third-most voted in the province, with 16.95% of the vote, and Gutiérrez was elected.[2]
As a national deputy, Gutiérrez formed part of the parliamentary commissions on Regional Economies and Development (which he presides) and Public Works.[3] Gutiérrez was an opponent of the legalization of abortion in Argentina, voting against the 2020 Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy bill, which passed the Chamber and later went on to legalize abortion nationwide.[4]
