Latino voters in key 2024 states and districts want Biden administration to grant deportation protections and work permits to unauthorized immigrants.

Eighty-five percent of the 2,000 registered Latino voters surveyed over the summer indicated they wanted to expand the TPS program to allow additional immigrants from crisis-stricken countries to live and work in the U.S. The polls illustrate the tricky political challenges faced by Mr. Biden on immigration policy.

Latinos want to see Democrats deliver a balanced agenda on the issue of immigration, Barreto said.

However, Daniel Garza , president of the LIBRE Initiative , said Mr. Biden and Democrats could be punished at the polls because of the spike in illegal border entries over the past two years .

Garza : " Joe Biden is singing the same tune with the same broken promise".
