APDespite the false rhetoric coming from the left and illegal alien advocacy groups, the vast majority of Americans approve of Arizona’s new law (SB1070) which makes it a crime for illegal aliens to be in that state. When asked, Americans consistently voice their anger over the burden being placed on this country by illegal aliens, as well as their wish for a crackdown on illegal immigration.

What follows is a list of a few major polls which display Americans’ true feelings for illegal aliens:

-80 percent of Americans are concerned that illegal aliens burden schools, hospitals and other government services, while77 percent worry that they drive down wages.
USA TODAY/Gallup Poll (May 1-2, 2010)

-79 percent of Americans believe that illegal aliens are not entitled to the same rights and basic freedoms as US citizens.
A Zogby Interactive poll (April 16-19, 2010)

-67 percent of U.S. voters say "illegal immigrants are a significant strain on the U.S. budget."
Rasmussen Reports (March 3, 2010)

-71 percent of Americans want to see those who hire illegal aliens arrested, while 64 percent support surprise raids on businesses suspected of hiring illegal aliens.
Rasmussen Reports (October 2009)

-73 percent of U.S. voters believe that police officers should always check immigration status during routine traffic stops.
Rasmussen Reports (March 2009)

-68 percent of Arizona voters have a favorable opinion of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
Rasmussen Reports (March 2009)

-61 percent of Hispanic-Americans, 69 percent of Asian-Americans, and 70 percent of African-Americans believe that illegal immigration is caused by a lack of enforcement, and not by current federal immigration limits.
Zogby poll (February 2010)

These polls have not been lost on our open borders president, Barack Obama, as evidenced by his recent announcement that so-called ‘comprehensive immigration reform’ (amnesty), is unlikely to be voted upon this year.

It is clear that those who seek the legalization of millions of illegal aliens, are only the illegal aliens themselves, the greedy business owners who profit from their dirt cheap labor, and the politicians who long for those potential votes.
