TY - JOUR T1 - Asian American Perspectives on Immigration Policy JF - RSF: The Russell Sage Foundation Journal of the Social Sciences SP - 154 LP - 177 DO - 10.7758/RSF.2021.7.2.08 VL - 7 IS - 2 AU - Van C.

Drawing on data from the 2016 National Asian American Survey, this article examines both interracial and intra-Asian differences in views toward immigration. Relative to other racial groups, Asians are as likely to support legal migration, but less likely to support undocumented migration. We document significant diversity among Asians. As labor migrants, Filipinos support a congressional increase in annual work visas. As economic migrants, Chinese and Indians support an increase in annual family visas. As refugees, Vietnamese are least supportive of pro-immigration policy. These findings contribute to research on policy support by systematically including Asian Americans in this debate and by revealing their diverse policy perspectives. ER -
