Today marks National Immigrants Day. In recent months, immigrants in the U.S. have faced growing hostility fueled by the actions of the second Trump administration.

Findings from the 2025 PRRI American Values Survey show that most Americans disapprove of these actions and President Trump’s handling of immigration (54%) and the border (52%), but with sharp partisan divides.

President Trump’s second term has ushered in a period of profound political and social change. In partnership with @brookingsinst, PRRI’s 16th annual American Values Survey examines how Americans perceive new federal policies, executive actions, economic conditions, and the state of democracy in this pivotal moment.

The survey finds that majorities of Americans say that the Trump administration’s cuts in federal funding for health care (60%) and universities and research institutions (55%), the implementation of new tariffs (54%), and the increase in funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) (52%) have gone too far.

Additional findings include:

📊 Majorities of Americans say the economy (65%), the way the federal government is functioning (65%), dealing with other countries (60%), and dealing with undocumented immigrants (57%) are headed in the wrong direction.
📊 Just half of Americans are extremely or very proud of being an American (50%). American pride has declined sharply since 2013, when 82% said they were extremely or very proud.
📊 Nearly seven in ten Americans (69%) agree with the statement “The ability of Americans to freely criticize the government without fear of punishment is a right that seems less protected than in previous years,” including majorities of Democrats (86%), independents (73%), and Republicans (54%). Americans are divided about whether “the system of checks and balances in our government is working as it should to limit one branch of the government from becoming too powerful” (46% agree vs. 50% disagree).

📊 58% of Americans agree that “ICE officers should not be allowed to conceal their identity with masks or use unmarked vehicles when arresting people,” including most Democrats (84%) and independents (64%), but only three in ten Republicans (31%).
