POLL: Majority of Voters Support Using Citizen Volunteers to Triage Southern Border

(Austin, TX—January 25, 2023) Convention of States Action, in partnership with The Trafalgar Group—one of America’s most accurate pollsters in 2016, 2018, 2020, and 2021—is releasing the results of a new national survey. Results were from surveys conducted January 9th through January 12th of over 1,000 likely general election voters.

“Washington, D.C. elites–and their friends in the global business, Hollywood, and Silicon Valley establishment worlds–are completely disconnected from the American people and the reality that goes on around them daily. Governor DeSantis sent some illegal aliens up to Martha’s Vineyard last year to make exactly that point. The border crisis is real, it’s urgent, and it presents a potential danger to every family in this country. Illegitimate President Biden finally showed up to take a look at a highly sanitized area of the Southern Border so we have the impression he finally cares, but absolutely nothing has changed, nor will it,” said Mark Meckler, President of Convention of States. “When Washington, DC fails, the states who created Washington, DC have a duty to step in. And in the case of the Southern Border, a majority say they are so deeply alarmed by the failure to secure the border, they want their Governor to call on average citizens to step in and defend our nation. I cannot underscore how significant this is, our citizens are so desperate, they are ready to step in.”
