What polls show on immigration action in Nov. 2014- only 39% approve legal status for illegal immigrants, 60% approve a pathway to citizenship

11/19/2014

As President Obama moves to make an executive order to tackle immigration isues, polls show a conflicted American public. By about a 8-10 percentage margin the public and voters oppose legal status for illegal immigrants. By contrast 60% favor some sort of pathway for illegal immigrants, and 74% favor this if backtaxes are paid. Experts say this may suggest the public sees legal status and especially citizenship citizenship as something that should be earned.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
