Zogby: Bush, Congress Mishandling Immigration
Americans give both President Bush and the Congress failing marks on their handling of immigration, according to a new UPI/Zogby poll.
The Zogby Interactive poll of 8,300 adults nationwide finds just 3 percent of Americans viewing Congress's handling of the immigration issue in favorable terms, while 9 percent say the same of the president - even as respondents in the survey rated it the second most important issue facing the country, after the war in Iraq.
As the U.S. Senate prepares to vote on an immigration reform bill in Washington, Americans said they take a dim view of that bill, with just 38 percent holding a favorable view of the legislation. The poll also suggests that those most favorably-disposed toward the bill are those who view guest worker programs and a pathway to citizenship for those now in the country illegally as the most important aspects of the immigration debate.

The Internet survey, conducted June 15-18, 2007, included 8,300 U.S. adults and carries a margin of error of +/- 1.1 percentage points, and was sponsored by United Press International.
