Gutiérrez was elected as a representative from the Arequipa electoral district in 2006 for the 2006–2011 parliamentary period with 48,417 votes.[2] In 2006, he was expelled from the Peruvian Nationalist Party after criticizing Ollanta Humala and Gonzalo García Núñez, though he remained committed to Peruvian nationalism.[3] [4] In 2008, he was selected to serve on the board of Javier Velásquez as second vice president.[5]
In 2010, Gutiérrez was suspended for 120 days from the Congress of the Republic after being denounced by the Peruvian Nationalist Party for having left the country for 5 months despite having only 52 days leave.[6]
