September 9, 2019: Seventy-six percent (76%) of voters nationwide believe illegal immigration is bad for the United States, according to a ScottRasmussen.com national survey. That total has declined a bit in recent months. In June, a similar survey found that 82% believed illegal immigration was bad.[1]

Currently, 90% of Republicans, 77% of independents, and 63% of Democrats believe illegal immigration is bad.

It’s important to keep in mind that Americans overwhelmingly believe legal immigration is good for the United States. Eighty-four percent (84%) currently hold that view.
