Americans More Positive About Immigration

Sixty-six percent say it is a good thing for U.S., highest since 2006

by Jeffrey M. Jones

PRINCETON, NJ -- President Barack Obama's decision not to deport young people who came to the U.S. illegally as children comes at a time when Americans' views toward immigration are much more positive than they have been in recent years. Currently, 66% say immigration is a "good thing" for the U.S. today, up from 59% last year and one percentage point off the high of 67% in 2006.
