The elections in the United States that will take place on Tuesday, November 8, will be decisive in determining which party will have the majority in the Senate during the second half of the Biden-Harris administration.
According to a survey commissioned by the National Immigration Law Center Justice Fund ( NILC), 73% of voters in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin said they support undocumented immigrants in the United States obtaining legal status if they meet certain requirements.
In the survey, one of the questions referred to the opinion of voters about undocumented immigrants, and 73% of those surveyed responded that the undocumented should have a path to legal status and eventually to US citizenship, if is that they meet certain requirements such as background checks.
Likewise, it highlights the work carried out by the organizations where it collaborates and the importance of minimizing the barriers that prevent access to outdoor activities: “EVOM works with community members and local organizations to offer fun programs for people of all ages. , skills and cultures.
On the other hand, the Latino community demonstrated support for undocumented immigrants, with 85% of Latinos surveyed expressing support for them to obtain a path to legal status or citizenship.
The five states in question are of paramount importance in determining which party will hold a majority in the Senate, which is currently split evenly between the two dominant parties.
However, despite the fact that NILC members have expressed that proposals to reform the asylum system or legalize immigrants are attractive to voters in these states, according to the survey, migration is not one of the main issues for the voters of these states, since 55% consider that the main issue that can determine their vote is inflation and the cost of living.
However, there are several proposals that have more obvious support, for example, 71% of voters also support that immigrants fleeing violence in their countries request asylum at the southern border.
