Approval
is growing for some parts of President Donald Trump's restrictions on immigration, but not for some
of the more dramatic moves in his administration's policy, a new NPR/Ipsos poll
shows.
The
1,013 people surveyed from Feb. 7-10 shows Americans support the president's
push for mass deportations of immigrants living in the United States without
legal status, and they are coming to approve plans to expand wall construction
along the U.S.-Mexico
border, reports NPR on
Friday.
But
other actions, such as calling to end birthright citizenship, the detainment of
migrants at Guantanamo Bay, and allowing arrests of immigrants in schools and
churches, were found to be widely unpopular by Democrats and independents, but
approved by Republicans.
"Americans
on the whole may be more supportive of immigration restrictions in theory,
[but] there's still not a lot of agreement on what that looks like,"
Mallory Newall, a vice president at Ipsos, commented.
The
poll showed that 23% of the respondents think immigration is a top issue,
coming in several points behind their major concern, inflation, and increasing
costs, at 47%.
But
more Republicans, at 47% said immigration is a top issue, as compared with 19%
of independents and 9% of Democrats.
Meanwhile,
almost 1 in 3 poll respondents said restrictions on immigration "go too
far" while 29% said the restrictions do not go far enough.
Republicans
remained united behind the Trump administration's agenda on immigration, the
poll shows:
·
75%
support denying federal funds to sanctuary cities.
·
Nearly
as many back using the military to arrest and detain immigrations who do not
have legal status.
·
Four
out of 5 support deporting all immigrants without legal status, and call the
record numbers of migrants at the border an invasion.
The
poll also showed that Trump's push to end birthright citizenship is widely
unpopular, with less than a third supporting the plan.
Plans
to detain immigrants at the U.S. naval station in Guantanamo Bay were also not
popular, with 36% of respondents in the survey approving. The idea was more
popular with Republicans than Democrats.
The
poll also showed shifts in public opinion over time:
·
In
2018, only 38% of Americans supported building a U.S.-Mexico border wall, but
almost 50% said they approved in the latest survey.
·
Two-thirds
of Americans in 2018 favored giving legal status to DREAMers, the immigrants
brought to the United States illegally as children, but the current poll shows
that number has dropped to less than 50%.
