Among Latinos, the Achilles heel in President Bush's new immigration proposal is its requirement that temporary workers return to their home countries when their permits expire, according to a national poll released Thursday.
The first survey of Latino reactions to Bush's proposal to issue temporary worker permits found 42 percent in support and 20 percent opposed. The rest either had no opinion or were unaware of it.
Opposition to the plan more than doubled when respondents were told that most temporary workers would have to return to their home countries at the end of three or six years.
