Most Americans See an ‘Invasion’ at the Southern Border

A new NPR/Ipsos poll finds that more than half of Americans say there’s an “invasion” at the southern border.

“The poll also found that large numbers of Americans hold a variety of misconceptions about immigrants — greatly exaggerating their role in smuggling illegal drugs into the U.S., and how likely they are to use public benefits, for example — as false and misleading claims about immigration gain traction.”
