You really have to unpack "immigration." Obviously, Americans are still extremely supportive of immigrants and immigration, but it seems fairly clear to me that the Overton window has shifted right on border security and asylum rules.
NYT provides no evidence here, probably because the claim is flatly untrue. See eg recent Pew data, or many posts on the subject from @gelliottmorris.com this year
