U.S. Public Opinion on Immigration Shifts Post-2024 Election

A Gallup report shows that American public opinion on immigration has become more favorable over the past year, with increased support for immigration benefits and pathways to citizenship, despite ongoing strict enforcement policies by the Trump administration. The share of Americans wanting less immigration has decreased significantly, and most now view immigration positively, although Republicans remain more supportive of reducing it. Unauthorized border crossings have also declined to their lowest levels in decades.
