The article "border crisis impacting public opinion on immigration" speaks about the noticsble change in public opinion on immigration over the course of just a few months. According to a CNN poll, in February of 2014 when people were asked what was most important about immigration policy the majority said that it was helping immigrants gain documentation while the minority said it was border security. After increased immigrants coming in to america though, a new poll shows that the majority say that border security is now the top priority on the immigration topic.
I think this poll is an excellent example of how the american public can change their minds so drastically just because something has been in the news recently. It amazes me that people's views can change after nothing actually happening just different coverage on the same topic.
