Americans prefer less immigration rather than more. While this is true of legal immigration, it is doubly true of illegal immigration, which is seen as a scourge by both native-born Americans and those who have legitimately moved here.
They see how illegal immigration lowers wages and contributes to crime, and they want it to stop.

As a result, RINOs and Democrats are pushing for amnesty for illegals; amnesty would provide their corporate funders the legal cover they need to keep hiring illegals, and it would encourage even more illegals to come here in the pipeline of cheap labor.
According to a February 17 report by the National Republican Congressional Committee, Hispanic battleground voters believe Republicans in Congress at 42%, can do a better job dealing with jobs and the economy than Democrats in Congress at 35%.
