Meanwhile, a recent survey indicates that a majority of likely U.S. voters back immigration enforcement raids carried out since President Trump took office.
According to the Rasmussen Reports poll, conducted between January 26-28 with 1,229 likely voters, 57% support the raids aimed at apprehending and deporting individuals residing in the country illegally. Of those respondents, 38% expressed strong approval, while 39% disapproved, including 24% who strongly opposed the measures.
The poll also addressed the administration’s scrutiny of sanctuary cities that shield undocumented immigrants. When asked if officials in these areas should face legal consequences for obstructing federal immigration enforcement, 48% agreed, 38% disagreed, and 14% were uncertain, as reported by Newsmax.
Additional findings cited by the outlet include:
- 86% of those who strongly approve of the raids also support prosecuting sanctuary city officials who hinder federal enforcement efforts.
- 81% of Republicans, 36% of Democrats, and 45% of unaffiliated voters at least somewhat approve of the raids.
- 47% of Democrats strongly disapprove of the raids, compared to 6% of Republicans and 16% of unaffiliated voters.
- 71% of Republicans, 28% of Democrats, and 46% of unaffiliated voters believe sanctuary city officials should face prosecution for obstructing enforcement.
- 56% of Democrats, 20% of Republicans, and 36% of unaffiliated voters oppose prosecuting sanctuary city officials.
Demographic breakdowns also reveal broad support for the raids and potential legal action against officials who defy immigration authorities:
- 62% of men and 52% of women back the enforcement actions, while more men (53%) than women (44%) favor prosecuting non-compliant officials.
- Approval rates by race include 58% of white voters, 54% of Black voters, 57% of Hispanic voters, and 50% of other minorities. However, Black voters were more inclined to oppose prosecuting sanctuary city officials.
The survey further underscored a significant divide between supporters of Trump and former Vice President Kamala Harris on the issue, with 87% of Trump voters approving of the raids and 70% of Harris voters disapproving.
Earlier this week, Trump’s Border Czar, Tom Homan, had a heated exchange with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins regarding the administration’s large-scale deportation efforts, which have now seen involvement from certain FBI units.
During an appearance on The Source, Homan firmly defended the policies when Collins questioned whether Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) should pursue individuals in places like schools, churches, and hospitals where they might seek refuge to avoid deportation.
“What is the standard, I guess, to go into an elementary school?” Collins inquired. “Because what we had heard from immigration advocates is that this is going to provide a chilling effect to parents in the school drop-off line or something of that matter.”
“It shouldn’t be a chilling effect unless your child is a terrorist or a public safety threat. If they are a public safety threat, a national security threat, they should be chilled. They should be afraid because we’re looking for them,” Homan responded.
Collins countered, noting that the concern is about parents who are in the country illegally.
“They’re not off the table either. I mean, they’re in the country illegally, they have got a problem,” Collins said. “I mean, it’s not OK — look, we — it’s not OK to enter this country illegally. It’s a crime. And that’s the way it’s supposed to be. I wouldn’t feel comfortable if I’m in Switzerland illegally. So we’re going to enforce the laws of this country.”
Homan doubled down on the administration’s stance, stating, “National security threats and public safety threats have no safe haven in this country, and we will go where we got to go.”
