The respected Pew Research Center released a report in June of 2018 showing the support for increasing the number of legal immigrants has risen among Americans.
The study found that 32 percent of Americans feel that legal immigration should be increased, which is the highest percentage since at least 2001.
Conversely, 24 percent say legal immigration should be decreased, while almost 38 percent of Americans believe legal immigration should at least be kept at current levels.
