As relations between the U.S. and Cuba begin normalizing some have begun questioning the special immigration policies that favor Cuban migrants. Though the Obama administration has said the laws will remain in place, public opinion on the laws is shifting.

Earlier this month the Sun-Sentinel conducted various polls asking Floridians their opinion on various immigration policies. The data collected in the Sun-Sentinel poll showed more support ending the special immigration benefits for Cubans than continuing.
