Government doing a bad job dealing with influx of immigrants: Poll

Four-fifths of Americans say the federal government is doing a bad job handling the influx of immigrants at the southern border, according to a Pew Research Center poll released Friday.

While dissatisfaction was more prevalent among Republican respondents at 89%, nearly three-quarters of those who identified as Democrats also said the government is doing either a “somewhat bad” or “very bad” job dealing with the large number of immigrants at the border. All marks, total and in both parties, are the highest they have been during President Joe Biden’s administration.
