The Daily Kos is reporting on three polls that look at support for comprehensive immigration reform in the U.S. It's a political hot potato that's been tossed around before.

In the midst of a nasty recession, you'd think immigration issues would get less support. But the polls (Pew, Washington Post, Beneson Strategy Group) show an amazing amount of support from comprehensive reform - reform that includes the possibility amnesty for undocumented aliens already in the country and increased enforcement and stronger penalties for companies hiring undocumented aliens.

And (surprisingly) the strongest supporters of comprehensive immigration reform are suddenly Republicans.
