What do polling participants want? Pragmatic proposals that move America forward! When do they want it? Now!

The American people want our country's broken immigration system to be fixed--and they want Congress to make it happen within the year. According to new polling, public support for comprehensive immigration support remains unwavering despite the country's economic downturn.

The recent national poll from Beneson Strategy Group for America's Voice demonstrates that the solution-oriented mindset of American people in tough times is actually leading to increased support for a broad overhaul of the nation's immigration policies. While approximately 2/3 of voters (64 percent) support reform prior to being given a full explanation of key components of the legislation, when given a detailed description of a comprehensive immigration reform proposal, support for Congress to pass reform increased to nearly 9 in 10 voters.

These stunning polling figures of 1,000 likely voters throughout the country for America's Voice show strong favor for reform proposal specifics that would allow undocumented immigrants to come out of the shadows and gain citizenship if they meet certain conditions. Voters also broadly rejected proposals calling for mass-deportation of the nation's roughly 12 million undocumented immigrants, as well as tactics using enforcement-only punishment tactics.

Can there possibly be a bigger win-win? The American people strongly support what is a moral and practical imperative -- to bring 12 million undocumented immigrants out of the shadows and integrate them into our society. Now all we need is our politicians to do the right thing.
