The latest Gallup polling reveals that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/economy\/2022\/02\/15\/bidens-economic-strategy-spikes-public-opposition-to-migration\/\">nearly 7-in-10<\/a> Republicans want overall immigration to the U.S. reduced, and the number of swing voters who support cutting immigration has increased 13 percentage points in the last year.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>John Binder is a reporter for Breitbart News.
