**86% to 8%: Voters Want Candidates Who Support Targeted Border,
Immigration Solutions**

WASHINGTON, D.C. - By nearly 80 percentage points, registered voters
say they would support a candidate who works to bring order to the
border and enact bipartisan immigration reforms that address labor
needs, inflation, and existing foreign-born workers.

The new findings from the National Immigration Forum, in conjunction
with The Bullfinch Group, are just the latest evidence of Americans'
support for targeted immigration reforms as an election year
approaches. 

Survey participants were asked, "Thinking ahead to the next election,
please indicate if you support or oppose the following candidate stance
on immigration: A candidate that works to restore order at the border,
and believes it is important for Republicans and Democrats to work
together to pass immigration reforms that address labor shortages and
inflation, and protect people already here and contributing."

Overall support among registered voters was 86%, with 8% opposed and the
rest saying they were unsure. Support was 86% among self-identified
Republicans, 84% from those who identified themselves as conservative,
and 85%  from evangelical Protestants.   

"As a major election approaches, voters are ready for politicians and
candidates to put forward border and immigration solutions, not divide
and polarize," said Jennie Murray, President and CEO of the National
Immigration Forum. "The support for the parties to work together on
balanced, targeted reforms has been consistent for the past few years,
and these results are the strongest we've seen. 

"We need reforms that offer security and order without sacrificing
compassion and human dignity. Americans want a different, more
reasonable conversation." 

Polling crosstabs are available

for all adults and for registered voters.
