L.A. Times Poll: 65% of Americans Oppose Biden’s ‘Catch and Release’ into U.S. for Border Crossers, Illegal Aliens – By John Binder (Breitbart) / Dec 16, 2022
A majority of Americans oppose President Joe Biden’s expansive “Catch and Release” network releasing tens of thousands of border crossers into American towns and cities every month, a new poll finds.
According to the latest Los Angeles Times/YouGov poll, 65 percent of Americans said Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) ought to be either detaining border crossers and illegal aliens or immediately deporting them to their native countries after they arrive at the United States-Mexico border.
Of that 65 percent majority, 42 percent said border crossers and illegal aliens should be required to wait out their asylum hearings in their native country, while 23 percent said they should be detained in the United States while awaiting their asylum hearings.
Notably, nearly 6 in 10 Hispanic Americans said border crossers and illegal aliens should be detained in the U.S. or deported to their native countries while awaiting their hearings. Only 26 percent said they support releasing new arrivals into the United States interior.
