Recent polls are indicating a significant change in public sentiment towards immigration policies under the Trump administration. Support levels have plummeted to historic lows, with only 20% voicing approval. Additionally, a growing concern among 25% of US adults is the looming threat of deportation for themselves or their loved ones.
Comments from President Trump this week added to the discourse, as he cautioned American technology behemoths about hiring practices in India. Despite his initial pledges to tackle immigration issues, particularly illegal immigration, the populace now exhibits a clear disenchantment with this cornerstone agenda. Similarly, organizations leveraging the capabilities of Indian professionals seem poised to reject his admonishments outright.
The latest survey findings reveal a meager 20-30% backing for Trump’s key immigration directives, encompassing actions such as the apprehension of undocumented migrants lacking criminal records, establishment of expansive detention facilities, and expulsion of individuals to nations like El Salvador and South Sudan sans any judicial oversight.
