About 8 in 10 Americans, 79 percent, say immigration is “a good thing” for the country today, an increase from 64 percent a year ago and a high point in the nearly 25-year trend. Only about 2 in 10 US adults say immigration is a bad thing right now,

In general, Americans’ views of immigration policies have shifted dramatically in the last year, the Gallup polling shows — including among Republicans, who have become much more content with immigration levels since Trump took office but who have also grown more supportive of pathways to citizenship for people in the country illegally.

Gallup found that 62 percent of Americans disapprove of Trump’s handling of the issue, and there are signs of erosion among Republicans, too.
