We are American!
56% Support Enforcement Only Immigration Approach
Fifty-six percent (56%) of American adults favor an enforcement-only approach to immigration reform. Only 29% are opposed.
However, support falls sharply when “a path to citizenship” for illegal aliens already in the United States is added to the mix. Just 42% support the more “comprehensive” approach while 44% are opposed. This proposal was similar to a “grand bargain” announced by Senator Arlen Specter earlier in the week.
Specter’s outline included a provision to add 6,000 border patrol agents along the US-Mexican border. That would double the number of border agents and is supported by 62% of Americans. Only 24% are opposed.
