A new national poll of "likely midterm voters" finds 55% of them favoring a bill that "would allow immigrants to bring in their spouse and minor children but would end migration of extended family."
Amid reports that the White House is wrestling over whether to cap next year's refugee admissions at 50,000 or a lower number, a national poll of likely voters found that most would prefer a lower number. And most of them prefer MUCH lower.
Up for re-election next year, Democratic Senator Joe Manchin has to contend with an West Virginia electorate that polling finds overwhelmingly wants immigration reduced -- just like President Trump who won the state's electoral votes last year.
Let's cut through confusion and distortion to see what Pres. Trump's DACA plan would do. There will not be a 6-month delay in ending the amnesty program as some have reported. No applications for renewals will be accepted after Oct. 5, and most young adult illegal aliens will not be able to apply for anything after today. Take a look at the details.
POLL RESULTS: Democratic Senator Debbie Stabenow is running for re-election next year in a Michigan political climate in which most voters agree with the immigration-reduction promises Donald Trump made as he won the state's electoral votes last year.
Up for re-election next year, Democratic Senator Sherrod Brown has to contend with an Ohio electorate that polling finds overwhelmingly wants immigration reduced -- just like President Trump who won the state's electoral votes last year.
Immigration-expansionist Sen. Jeff Flake revealed today in the New York Times that illegal immigration and reliance on foreign labor was an integral part of his childhood experience.
He recounts a touching relationship growing up with one illegal worker and argues that America needs more immigrants like him who know little English and have little education. I don't doubt Sen. Flake's heart-felt good will toward the foreign workers on the family ranch. But personal sentimentality alone does not make for a just or rational public policy. The RAISE Act does.
Two of the three winners in Alabama's U.S. Senate primary elections Tuesday pledged to voters during the campaign that they will support immigration actions that are at the heart of the congressional RAISE Act.
Many of the elite national TV and radio networks and newspapers have reacted in horror at the idea of cutting legal immigration from around a million a year to around a half-million. Draconian! UnAmerican! Violating our Statue of Liberty immigration policy! Threatening a collapse in our economy!
A national poll taken just before Pres. Trump endorsed the RAISE Act in a White House event on Aug. 2 found overwhelming support for the bill's central feature -- reducing legal immigration from around one million a year to around a half-million.
Pulse Opinion Research surveyed 1,000 "likely mid-term voters" on July 24-25 and asked them how many legal immigrants should be allowed each year. The firm stated that the results had a margin of sampling error of only 3 percentage points,and had a 95% level of confidence.
