Immigration reform continues to attract broad public support as the Gang of
Eight compromise legislation moves through the Senate, according to a huge
raft of polling conducted for three pro-reform groups: the Partnership for a
New American Economy, the Alliance for Citizenship and Republicans for
Immigration Reform.
In a polling memo set for release Thursday– and shared early with POLITICO
– Democratic pollster Tom Jensen and Republican pollster Brock McCleary
reveal that their surveys found “overwhelming, bipartisan support for the
bill” across 29 states.
“Over the last few years, we’ve seen a country increasingly polarized
across party lines when it comes to almost all attempts to move legislation.
Yet, the compromise that’s been crafted on immigration reform is a rare
exception to that rule. The bill that’s been constructed has broad support
with every segment of the electorate in every part of the country,” write
Jensen, who heads the firm Public Policy Polling, and McCleary, of Harper
Polling.
The two firms, which use IVR methodology (often called “robo-polling”),
collected a mountain of data in states ranging from strongly Republican
Idaho and Utah to solidly Democratic Illinois and Maine.
In each state, the pollsters described the legislation in accurate but
positive terms, telling participants that the Gang of Eight bill would help
“secure our borders, block employers from hiring undocumented immigrants”
and require undocumented immigrants to meet “a long list of requirements …
over more than a decade” in order to obtain a pathway to citizenship.
Presented with that favorable description of the legislation, voters
responded warmly, with between 61 and 78 percent in each state expressing
support.
Those are probably best-case numbers for immigration reform advocates. The
reform proposals currently under consideration have not yet been picked
apart in the Senate and House legislative processes. When politicians debate
immigration reform before the voters next year, they won’t be presenting
such a plainly one-sided view of the issue.
But at this point, in states represented by key advocates of immigration
reform, both the Gang of Eight proposal and a pathway to citizenship earn
robust support, as described.
In Florida, where GOP Sen. Marco Rubio has been one of the staunchest
supporters of reform legislation, 72 percent of voters said they support the
legislation (including 45 percent who strongly support it) and 71 percent
backed the pathway to citizenship.
In South Carolina, home to reform-boosting Republican Lindsey Graham, those
numbers were only a bit lower: 62 percent who support the Gang of Eight bill
and 60 percent who backed the pathway to citizenship.
And in Texas, the rapidly changing but still-conservative state with two
senators who have resisted reform – Ted Cruz and John Cornyn – 67 percent
said they could support the reform bill as described, with 72 percent
backing a pathway to citizenship.
The average support for the “Gang of Eight” legislation was just under 68
percent, according to the pollsters.
McCleary and Jensen write in their memo: “The bipartisan immigration reform
package represents a rare opportunity to cast an affirmative vote for major
legislation that enjoys overwhelming support from voters of all stripes.”

列出Poll questions:
There is bipartisan immigration reform legislation being debated in
Washington. The bill would secure our borders, block employers from hiring
undocumented immigrants, and make sure that undocumented immigrants already
in the U.S. with no criminal record register for
legal status. If a long list of requirements is met over more than a decade,
it provides eligibility for a path to citizenship. Would you support or
oppose this proposal?
Do you support or oppose an immigration reform plan that ensures
undocumented immigrants currently living in the U.S. pay a penalty, learn
English, pass a criminal background check, pay taxes, and wait a minimum of
thirteen years before they can be eligible for
citizenship?
Would you be more likely or less likely to vote for an elected official who
votes for this legislation?
Now, I’m going to read you a statement. Please tell me whether you agree or
disagree. My Senator should support this legislation because everyone
agrees our immigration system is broken and this bill is tough, but fair. It
would tighten border security, crack down on employers who hire
undocumented immigrants and solve this problem once and for all.
How important is it that the U.S. fix its immigration system this year?
