A new Rasmussen Reports survey finds that 52% of U.S. voters believe the decennial census should exclude undocumented immigrants, while 36% say they should be counted and 12% are undecided. Support for exclusion is strongest among Republicans (65%) and unaffiliated voters (57%), whereas Democrats are almost evenly split, with 49% saying undocumented immigrants should be included. The polling comes as immigration statistics prompt fresh confusion online. Several commentators asserted that 55 million people currently live in the United States on visas—an interpretation critics say is misleading. Immigration analyst Daniel Di Martino and Center for Immigration Studies director Mark Krikorian note that the 55 million figure reflects all still-valid U.S. visas worldwide, including tourist and business visas held by people who remain outside the country. They add that individual visas can last for years and allow multiple entries, making the number far larger than the foreign-visa-holder population present in the United States at any one time. The simultaneous debate over census rules and visa data underscores the political sensitivity surrounding immigration policy as lawmakers and voters weigh how population counts affect congressional representation and federal funding.
