  1. A Survey of Republican Primary Voter Attitudes in the United States June 24-27, 2013 “The American Action Network is a 501(c)(4) ‘action tank’ dedicated to creating, encouraging and promoting center-right policies based on the principles of freedom, limited government, American exceptionalism, and strong national security.  One of the Network’s current initiatives is supporting conservative solutions to immigration reform.  The American Action Network believes our current immigration system is broken and the US Congress should offer conservative legislative solutions to address this critical national challenge.  The Network commissioned the accompanying poll which demonstrates public support for that position.”

  2. Which of the following statements about a candidate’s position on immigration comes closest to your own – ● The immigration issue is so important to me that I will not vote for a candidate that I do not agree with on that issue even if I agree with them on most other issues. OR● The immigration issue is important to me but I'll still vote for a candidate that I disagree with on that issue if I agree with them on most other issues.

  3. Have you seen, read, or heard anything in recent weeks about an immigration reform proposal currentlybeing considered in Congress?

  4. Based on the things that you have seen, read, or heard, do you favor or oppose this proposal?(If “Yes” in Q3, Asked of N=761 Respondents, or 76% of Sample)

  5. Would you favor or oppose Congress passing a comprehensive immigration bill?

  7. Would you favor or oppose Congress passing an immigration reform proposal that provides an earned pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants currently living in the United States?

  8. Still thinking about the issue of immigration reform – I'd like to read you two viewpoints. Please tell me which one comes closest to your own. Some people say that our immigration system is broken, and the status quo of having 11 million illegal immigrants living under “de facto” amnesty will only continue if we do nothing to solve the problem. Other people say that our immigration laws today are being ignored by the Obama Administration. We should enforce the laws we have before about talking about changing them or giving anyone a path to legal status.

  9. Would you favor or oppose allowing undocumented immigrants the opportunity to earn legal status if they pass a criminal background check, pay a fine, pay current and back taxes, learn English, go to the back of the line in the application process, and are not allowed to receive any taxpayer paid benefits?

  10. Still thinking about this immigration reform proposal – I'd like to read you two viewpoints. Please tell me which one comes closest to your own. Some people say that regardless of the provisions of this proposal, the end result is that it would be giving amnesty to the 11 million illegal immigrants currently in the United States illegally. Other people say that the provisions of this proposal make it so this proposal is not amnesty because it would require background checks, fines, paying back taxes, learning English, going to the back of the line, and not being allowed to receive taxpayer paid benefits.

  11. Now, thinking about the immigration reform proposal that is currently being considered in Congress. I would like to read you a list of the different elements that are in this proposal. Please listen carefully as I read each element and tell me if you would favor or oppose this.
