A new Public Policy Polling (PPP) survey finds that Minnesota Congressman John Kline could be deported from Congress by Minnesotans if he and his Republican caucus continue to obstruct the immigration reform package recently passed by the U.S. Senate.
Almost 7 out of every 10 (69%) Minnesota voters living in Kline’s congressional district support the immigration reform proposal. By more than a 2-to-1 margin, those Minnesotans say Klein’s blocking of this set of reforms would make them less likely to support him in his upcoming reelection bid (44% less likely to support Kline if he opposes immigration reform versus 19% more likely to support him).
PPP surveyed a representative sample of Americans in seven congressional districts, including districts in California, Colorado, Nevada, and New York. Among those seven districts, the support for the package was strongest in the Minnesota 2nd congressional district that Kline currently represents.
