    New Zogby poll 2:1 Support for House Enforcement only...

    'Splain this Congress!


    New Zogby Poll Shows 2:1 Support for House's "Enforcement First" Approach vs. the Senate's Amnesty Proposal
    A recent Zogby poll of likely voters shows Americans believe current immigration levels are too high and support legislation that would strengthen border security, require businesses to verify the employment eligibility status of workers, and increase Department of Homeland Security cooperation with local law enforcement. The poll shows Americans support the reforms in the House-passed immigration reform legislation, H.R. 4437, over the Senate immigration bill:

    When asked what the best way is to deal with illegal immigration, 64% supported the House bill's approach of enforcing immigration laws and encouraging illegal immigrants go home over time while only 30% supported the Senate bill, which would grant amnesty to 12 million illegal aliens and coupled with a doubling of legal immigration.


    Support for the House approach was widespread, with 81 percent of Republicans, 72 percent of independents, 57 percent of Democrats, and 53 percent of Hispanics saying it was good or very good idea.


    Seventy-three percent of Americans have little or no confidence in the ability of the government to screen out terrorists and criminals if there is a mass amnesty for the 12 million illegal aliens currently in the U.S.
    The American people recognize illegal immigration is a serious issue, and enforcement of our immigration laws must be our first priority. The complete poll can be found at http://www.cis.org/articles/2006/2006poll.pdf
