<p>A majority of Americans want to limit the number of migrants who can apply for asylum and believe that we should hire more Border Patrol agents, a recent poll found.</p>
<p>The poll, <a href="https://apnorc.org/projects/most-favor-hiring-more-border-patrol-agents-and-immigration-judges/">performed</a> by the Associated Press and National Opinion Research Center (NORC) at the University of Chicago between March 21st and 25th, found that 53% of Americans believe that we should limit the number of migrants who should be allowed to seek asylum. The issue was split by partisan affiliation, with 75% of Republicans and 51% of Independents saying that we should limit the number while just 35% of Democrats agreed.</p>
<p>There was broader support for hiring more Border Patrol agents, with 64% of Americans favoring the idea, including 54% of Democrats and 79% of Republicans, as well as 56% of Independents. Hiring more immigration judges is another popular idea, enjoying the support of 58% of Americans, including 60% of Republicans and 65% of Democrats.</p>
<p>There was a much wider partisan split on whether or not the United States should build a wall on the southern border, with just 12% of Democrats supporting the policy compared to 77% of Republicans and 42% of Americans overall.</p>
<p>Immigration is a significantly more important issue for Republicans than for Democrats, with 75% of those in the GOP calling it an “extremely” or “very” important issue as opposed to just 46% of Democrats.</p>
<p>While Democrats are less likely to call immigration an important issue, they have much more favorable views of mass immigration, with a majority of Democrats, 52%, saying that illegal immigrants “enrich American culture and values.”</p>
<p>Another recent poll found that Biden faces severe disapproval among the public for his handling of the border, with a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/voters-say-immigration-is-top-issue-facing-country-biden-faces-widespread-disapproval-on-immigration">recent poll</a> finding that only 36 percent of registered voters saying they approve of his performance on the issue, the lowest of any topic.</p>
<p>The data comes out as the United States faces an unprecedented surge of illegal aliens with over <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/2455010/illegal-border-crossers-total-over-10-million-since-biden-inauguration/">10 million</a> crossing the border since Joe Biden took office. There have been over one million illegal immigrant <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/over-one-million-illegal-migrants-encountered-at-southern-border-in-first-six-months-of-fiscal-year-2024">encounters</a> on the southern border in just the first six months of fiscal year 2024. There have also been an estimated <a href="https://cis.org/Arthur/Blockbuster-House-Report-Reveals-How-Badly-Bidens-Broken-Our-Immigration-System">1.7 million illegal immigrant gotaways</a> recorded since Biden took office in 2021. There were 415,000 total reported gotaways for 2018, 2019, and 2020 under the Trump administration.</p>
