Poll Shows Biden’s Migration Is a Top Problem in 2024 Election
Immigration will be the most important political issue for Americans in 2024 — except for the current war with nuclear-armed Russia, according to a poll for the Associated Press.
“35% cite immigration and the border wall as a top concern, an increase from 27% last year,” said the December 2023 poll conducted by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.
Immigration lost the top slot to foreign policy because only 22 percent of Democrats describe it as a top issue.
The issue of “foreign policy” scored higher at 38 percent — just above immigration’s score of 35 percent — because the largely non-partisan issue is very important to both Republicans and Democrats.
President Joe Biden’s migration beat inflation and the economy as top issues. Inflation scored 30 percent and “economy” scored 24 percent, although both are worsened by Biden’s policy of importing many wage-cutting, rent-spiking migrants.
Among Republicans, immigration was the top issue for 55 percent, far ahead of “foreign policy” at 46 percent, inflation at 41 percent, and the economy at 32 percent.
The dominant role of migration in GOP politics leaves little room for GOP legislators to make giveaway migration deals with Biden.
For example, Biden is holding hostage the expected funds for the Ukraine war with Russia because he wants to get congressional funding for more migration during 2024. So far, that ploy has failed, and the establishment GOP has voted against the combined migration and Ukraine funding request.
The rising public concern for foreign policy has likely been caused by Biden’s support for the war against Russia, which crossed the Ukraine-Russian border in 2022 to seize Russian-populated areas in eastern Ukraine, including the Crimean peninsula.
Biden has spent more than $75 billion to stop the Russian move across Ukraine’s borders.

Donald J. Trump / TruthThe rising public worry about migration began to take off in 2014, jumped in 2016, and jumped against this year because of Biden’s pro-migration policy.
The national focus on migration was announced on January 2, just as government officials reported news that Biden’s pro-migration border chief welcomed more than 300,000 migrants across the southern border in December 2023.
The record inflow does not include the roughly 50,000 “gotaways” who successfully sneak across the border each month. So Biden’s December 2023 migration was greater than the number of U.S. babies born in December.
Many polls show the public increasingly opposes Biden’s invitation to millions of economic migrants.
In New York, 62 percent of Catholics described legal migration as a burden, and just 27 percent describe it as a benefit, according to an October poll by Siena College for the New York Times.
A majority of Americans say migration is an invasion and the public increasingly rejects the Cold War-era narrative that the United States remains a “Nation of Immigrants.”
Mayor Eric Adams Says New York City ‘Out of Room, Literally’ While Giving Free Hotel Rooms to Border Crossers
Mayor Eric Adams (D) says New York City is “out of room, literally” with the arrival of more than 160,000 border crossers and illegal aliens since the spring of 2022. At the same time, though, Adams’ administration continues giving free hotel rooms to new arrivals.
In an interview with FOX5 NY’s Rosanna Scotto, Adams warned again that border crossers and illegal aliens will soon be sleeping on the city streets if the rate of illegal immigration under President Joe Biden continues.
“We’re not just saying we’re out of room as a sound bite — we’re out of room, literally,” Adams said. “People are going to be eventually sleeping on the streets.”
Adams also claimed that there is nothing he can do to revoke New York City’s sanctuary policy which shields illegal aliens from being turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.
“We cannot by law tell someone if they come into the city, ‘You can’t come into the city,'” Adams said. “We can’t even turn them over to ICE … the law states that we cannot notify ICE. I cannot break the law and enforce the law.”
Scotto pressed Adams as to why his administration has continued funneling billions to border crossers and illegal aliens — via free hotel rooms, food, city-run shelters, free cellphones, and other services — if the city is at a breaking point.
For instance, the iconic Roosevelt Hotel in midtown Manhattan has been transformed into a migrant camp where more than 70,000 have passed through its luxe lobby before moving out to other hotels and shelters.
Adams suggested that New York City is “being inundated” and that, as a result, city services for border crossers and illegal aliens will be cut down to “food, shelter, clothing, [and] that’s it.”
Days ago, Adams said New Yorkers can soon expect to see their quality of life downgraded tremendously because of budget cuts that are being imposed to pay for border crossers and illegal aliens.
Every day, the Biden administration releases about 5,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into the United States interior — many ending up in New York City, where they can work off the books, receive protection from the city’s sanctuary policy, and enjoy free housing for some time, paid for by local taxpayers.
