Gallup poll shows Americans clearly oppose amnesty for illegal Mexican immigrants

PRINCETON, NJ -- Mexican President Vicente Fox reportedly surprised his White House hosts at a welcoming ceremony Wednesday by forsaking the usual diplomatic bromides and launching into an intensive lobbying effort on behalf of amnesty for the estimated three million Mexican immigrants now living in the United States illegally.

Gallup polling about blanket amnesty for illegal immigrants more generally finds the public widely unsympathetic to this proposal, with only 6% supporting it. An additional 20% think that citizenship should be granted selectively to illegal immigrant workers who have been here a specified length of time and paid taxes, but two-thirds of Americans think that the United States should not do anything to facilitate citizenship for illegal immigrants.

In Oregon alone maybe. I'd be willing to be that 10% of Kali is illegal.
