As the Congressional session ends with members returning to their districts to ready for elections in November, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey to find out how registered party voters thought immigration reform was handled this session.

Over a week, Sept. 2-9, over 2000 adults -- 836 Republicans and Republican leaners and 913 Democrats and Democratic leaners -- were polled.

Just 37 percent of Republican voters and Republican leaners think their party did a good job representing their view on undocumented immigrants. And 56 percent thought they didn't do a good job.

A third of Republican voters, 33 percent, thought the party was too willing to allow immigrants living in the U.S. illegally to gain legal status, although 18 percent thought the GOP wasn't doing a good job because it was not willing enough to let undocumented immigrants gain legal status.

Fewer than half of Democrats thought their party did a good job representing their views, at 47 percent with 44 percent dissenting. As for legal status efforts, 21 percent thought they were too willing to allow legal status for the undocumented, and 20 percent thought them too unwilling.

Latino Democrats are much more likely than whites or blacks to criticize the party for not being willing enough to allow legal status for undocumented immigrants. Four in 10 Latino Democrats (40 percent) think the party is not doing a good job on the issue and not willing enough to work toward reform, compared to 17 percent of white voters and 13 percent of black voters.

The survey didn't break down what Latino Republicans thought of the Republican party's progress on immigration form. Less than thirty percent of Latinos are Republican voters.
