For the first time in nearly 20 years, a majority of Americans say they want immigration levels decreased, according to a new Gallup poll.

According to the survey, 55% say they want immigration reduced, while 16% say they want immigration to increase — the lowest level since 2009. 25% say they want immigration to remain at the same level.

May and June of 2020 were the only months on record when more respondents said they wanted immigration levels increased instead of decreased, at 34% and 33%, respectively.


The share of respondents who wanted a decrease in immigration hit a record low in May 2020, when just 28% said they wanted to slow immigration.

Support for reduced immigration peaked between 1993 and 1995, when 65% of respondents said they were in favor of lower levels.

Is anyone really naive enough to believe this administration really gives a sh*t what American citizens think? :shrug:

Not me.
I want "immigration to America" ENDED.
FOREVER.

We have enough.
Too many.
We need to start sending millions BACK.

If I had my way, I'd have the Statue of Liberty torn down and the plaque with Lazarus' words shattered on the pavement.

There may have been a time for that, once, up to about 100 years ago.
But that time is over.
OVER.

Tear it down.

Sorry if you don't like this post.

A broken border and resulting migrant crisis brought on by the current administration will do that to public opinion

 :pondering: The public has a blurred view of legal and illegal immigration.  Who knows what that poll actually meant to those participating.
