Immigration remains a strong point for President Trump as he approaches the 100-day mark of his presidency, however, some feel his actions on the contentious topic have gone too far, according to recent polling.

A new survey from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that 46 percent of U.S. adults generally approve of Trump’s actions on immigration, while 53 percent disapprove. 

His immigration rating is about 10 percent higher than the favorability he received on the economy and trade, which sat at 37 percent favorability each.

About half of those polled, 48 percent, said they think Trump may have crossed a line with his deportation policies and has “gone too far.” Thirty-two percent are satisfied, and 18 percent feel he hasn’t gone far enough.

The consensus is also split along party lines, with most Democrats believing he’s gone too far and most Republicans saying his actions have been “about right.”

Among the policy-specific questions included in the survey, respondents reacted the least favorably toward the revocation of student visas, with 28 percent being in favor of the action, 24 percent being neutral and 47 percent expressing disapproval.

On Friday, the Trump administration restored over 1,000 visas to international students after facing several lawsuits.

In comparison, 41 percent of poll respondents favored sending Venezuelan immigrants whom the U.S. claims to be gang members to a prison in El Salvador and 38 percent favored deporting all immigrants living in the U.S. illegally, according to the poll.

Trump has signed multiple executive orders and implemented several policies targeting immigration since return to the White Hosue, and his administration has deported 200 Venezuelan and Salvadoran men, prompting numerous challenges in court. 

The Associated Press-NORC nationwide poll was conducted April 17-21 nationwide via online and telephone interviews among 1,260 adults. The overall margin of sampling error is plus or minus 3.9 percentage points.
