About 28 percent of respondents in February and March said immigration was the biggest problem in the country. The latest survey, conducted among 1,0001 voters from April 1 to 22, showed a nearly similar result, with 27 percent of Americans viewing immigration the same way.

Partisan differences have played a significant role in driving the surge in concerns over immigration.
In the latest survey, 48 percent of Republicans cited immigration as the most important issue, compared to only eight percent of Democrats. Independents fell in between, with 25 percent expressing concern over immigration.
While there has been a slight decrease in its mention among Republicans since February when a record-high 57 percent identified it as the primary issue, the current 40 percent point gap between Republicans and Democrats is still one of the largest partisan disparities on record for immigration. The latest gap is nearly identical to the March gap, and is next only to the 47-point partisan difference on the same issue in February.
This level of polarization is unusual, with gaps between the parties' mentions of immigration this year exceeding those for any other issues over the past 25 years.
