Poll: 64% of Latinos back Obama's executive action on amnesty

Obama’s actions on immigration will likely help him politically with the growing Hispanic population in the U.S. because Hispanics favor the proposal by a better than 2-to-1 margin. Notably, support is higher among Hispanics who migrated to the U.S. (75%) than among Hispanics who were born in this country (51%), but both groups show greater approval than disapproval.

More generally, those of all racial and ethnic backgrounds who were born outside the U.S. are far more supportive of Obama’s proposed actions than those born in this country.
