Poll: Working Class, Swing Voters Most Opposed to Amnesty for Illegal Aliens
Likely American voters without college degrees, those with only a high school diploma, and swing voters are the most opposed to two amnesty bills being voted on this week in the House, a new survey reveals.
As Breitbart News reported, the House will vote on two amnesty bills on March 18. Between the two bills, an estimated five million illegal aliens living in the United States could benefit from the amnesties while increasing legal immigration levels.
Most significantly, one of the amnesties would allow 1.5 to 2.1 million illegal aliens working on farms to eventually apply for green cards to permanently resettle in the U.S.

Festival raises $11k
The annual Pauls Road Live music festival raised more than $11,000 for Gabby s Starlit Hope Charity. The charity was set up by Gabby Devine in early 2014, after she was diagnosed with Ewing s sarcoma the previous year. Devine died in 2015 aged 13, but the charity has continued in her honour. Three Whanganui and New Plymouth families with children who have cancer have been gifted $3770 each. The charity thanked festival organisers Fred Loveridge and Kerry O Sullivan, the Butlers for hosting, all the local bands that performed and everyone who attended and supported the event.
Immigration hawks have cast doubt on President Bidens ability to manage the legal immigration system after a series of White House blunders. A four-year pause would enable the US labor markets to recover from the coronavirus, while leaving policy questions pertaining to the visa system up to the next President.
Advocates for American workers have emphasized the need to continue during a period of recovery from the economic recession from the coronavirus, enabling Americans to resume careers in industries such as construction and the IT field.
While the bill is unlikely to advance in the Democratic-controlled House, it will potentially serve as a useful litmus test of Congressional Republicans, gauging which members of the party support common sense America First immigration reforms overwhelmingly supported by grassroots activists and Republican voters.
