Religious Leaders and Their Constituents Do Not See Eye-to-Eye on Welcoming Refugees
 
By Nayla Rush on May 25, 2018

The Pew Research Center has released the results of its latest survey on "whether the United States has a responsibility to accept refugees". Opinions varied by political affiliation, race, age, education, and religion.

By religious affiliation, the percentages of those who say the United States does not have a responsibility to accept refugees into the country vs. those who say it does are as follows:

     Does Not Have a Responsibility    Has a Responsibility
White Evangelical Protestant    68    25
White Mainline Protestant    50    43
Black Protestant    28    63
Catholic    45    50
Unaffiliated    31    65
