What Issue is the Top U.S. Priority? Depends: Immigration for Republicans and Health Care Access for Democrats.

A new AP-NORC survey highlights the public’s contribution to the lack of progress in Washington and the widely different emphases of the two parties. When the public was asked what should be the highest priority for the federal government, the party differences were dramatic.

There is some agreement on reducing crime, but disagreement as to how to do it, and general agreement that job and economic growth is a priority, but stark differences on control of borders, access to health care and climate change (see table).
