Nearly two-thirds of the public oppose “sanctuary cities.” Less than a third say they back the policy, according to the latest IBD/TIPP Poll.
The IBD/TIPP poll asked about support for a policy in which “some cities in the U.S. do not report illegal immigrants who commit crimes to federal immigration authorities.”
It found that 64% oppose the policy, with just 31% supporting it.
More interesting, while just 16% strongly support sanctuary cities, 45% strongly oppose the policy.
Every one of the 41 demographic groups broken out by the IBD/TIPP poll opposes this policy, except for Democrats (only 44% oppose) it, liberals (38% oppose) and those between 18 and 24 (48% of whom oppose this policy).
The strongest opposition comes from investors (71%), married women (70%), conservatives (79%), Gen-Xers (74%) and young boomers (72%).
Even Hispanics oppose this policy by a 57% to 39% margin.
