According to an America’s Voice-commissioned poll of 600 people in Central America:
- 27% recall having heard or seen a US official or politician say “the border is open” within the last 6 months.
- Among people who report they have heard politicians say “the border is open,” 35% state they believe with Title 42 ending, the Biden administration is cheering people on who cross the border. (Of those who haven’t heard US politicians say this, only 17% think that’s true.)
