I can't pinpoint a singular event that caused that.



That's because it is a developing issue and not one that happened immediately. The more the effects of mass immigration became apparent, the more pressing it became to address it in the minds of voters who put weight on it.

Okay, singular event was probably not the right way to phrase it. But even looking at the progression of events over say that last 10-15 years, and there really hasn't been anything I would say has caused this recent furor over it. I guess maybe the economic downturn in 2008 and 2009 triggered some of it when Americans were out of work while illegals were still working. But by many measures the economy has improved since then.
