**Healthcare:** The [latest](http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public%5Fcontent/politics/current%5Fevents/healthcare/june%5F2012/52%5Fwant%5Fu%5Fs%5Fsupreme%5Fcourt%5Fto%5Foverturn%5Fobama%5Fs%5Fhealth%5Fcare%5Flaw?ref=ivn.us) Rasmussen Reports finds that 52% of likely U.S. voters would like to see the Supreme court overturn Obama's health care law, while 38% disagree and would like to see the high court uphold the law's legality.

**Presidential:** Rasmussen's daily presidential tracking poll for today puts Romney ahead of Obama by 4 points, with Mitt Romney attracting 48% of the likely vote, versus Obama's 44% of likely support. Romney's leap in the polls now places the two candidates within one percentage point of each other, according to the adjusted [Real Clear Politics averages](http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/us/general%5Felection%5Fromney%5Fvs%5Fobama-1171.html?ref=ivn.us).

**Immigration:** A Gallup report released [Monday](http://www.gallup.com/poll/155210/Americans-Positive-Immigration.aspx?ref=ivn.us) shows that Americans are much more positive about immigration now than in recent years. Currently, 66% say immigration is a "good thing" for the U.S. today, up from 59% last year and one percentage point off the high of 67% in 2006.

**Economy:** Gallup released a report today, finding that the [Gallup Economic Confidence Index](http://www.gallup.com/poll/125735/Economic-Confidence-Index.aspx?ref=ivn.us) fell to -24 for the week ending June 17\. This the third week in a row Gallup has recorded declines in confidence, and while Gallup often reports one or two week declines, this is the first time they have recorded a three week decline since last summer.
