Americans say NO MORE: 54% oppose bigger migrant flows, and barely a quarter back Biden’s immigration strategy as Title 42 floodgates open

Three quarters of Republicans do not want more immigration into the US

More than a third of the president’s own voters agree

Damaging poll comes as pandemic-era migration limits lapse on Thursday

Most American voters — and an overwhelming majority of Republicans — are looking at scenes of migrants amassing on the southern border with a sense of urgency and alarm, the latest polling shows.

With pandemic-era border entry rules set to lapse on Thursday, a survey of more than 1,000 US adults paints a picture of a country scared by an influx of migrants once the floodgates open.

It shows how Americans don’t want bigger people flows into the US, support the military bolstering border guards, and question whether Joe Biden, a Democrat, is the right president for the critical task at hand.

The results come as growing numbers of migrants gather on the Mexican side of the southern border ahead of the expiration of Title 42, the pandemic-era rule that’s been used to expel many of those entering the US.

In an eleventh-hour move to staunch the influx on Wednesday, Biden revised the rules to require migrants to request refugee status online or in one of the countries they transit through before they reach the US border.

This may not be enough for most Americans.

Some 54 percent of voters oppose increasing the number of immigrants allowed into the US, according to the three-day Reuters/Ipsos nationwide survey.
