According to a new poll by Rasmussen, a staggering 67% of voters now reject illegal immigration, seeing it as a major, needless strain on the economy in the middle of a severe recession. 68% also oppose sanctuary cities, while 74% say government isn't doing enough to secure our borders.
Additionally, 68% think businesses who hire illegal immigrants should be punished, 69% believe illegal immigrants should be prosecuted and 56% support an enforcement-only approach.
Again, as with most issues in this right-of-center country, the American people overwhelmingly side with conservatives (the ones constantly being smeared as the extremists) and reject the left's absurd pro-amnesty ideas.
Imagine that, Americans still refuse to believe that overcrowding our federal prisons, bankrupting our schools and bottoming out our wages is worth getting cheaper lettuce.
