Immigration See other Immigration Articles Title: 85 Percent of Black Americans Want Less Immigration, 79 Percent of Whites Agree A new Harvard-Harris poll shows that 85 percent of black Americans want a reduction in immigration levels to 1 million or lower. Also interesting: more Americans favored zero immigration, than wanted to increase immigration levels. For context, in 2017 over 1.4 million legal immigrants arrived in America, while the number of illegals is unknown. This means that black Americans—not white as is commonly stated—are the racial group most opposed to immigration. The Washington Free Beaconsummarizes the report’s findings nicely: Americans prefer a system of prioritizing would-be legal immigrants based on their ability to contribute, based on their education and skills, over one based on immigrants having relatives in the United States, 79 to 21 percent. That includes a majority of white (79 percent), Hispanic (72 percent), and black (85 percent) citizens, as well as majorities of Democrats (72 percent), liberals (65 percent), and Clinton voters (72 %) The poll clearly shows that the majority of Americans are against mass immigration, and that support for this crosses racial and ideological lines. This is somewhat surprising, as the Democratic Party has positioned itself as the “immigration party”, and is absolutely dedicated to preserving the doctrine of “open borders” at any cost. However, this position seems untenable in the long run—the voter base eventually catches up to the rhetoric, and at that point the Democrats will be finished. http://harvardharrispoll.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Final_HHP_Jan2018- Refield_RegisteredVoters_XTab.pdf Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
