Gallup reports that Americans continue to retain an unfavorable view of Congress. Congress’ approval rating is 12%, up
from an all-time low of 10% in February, but remaining at 15% or less since
last August. Americans’ unfavorable
view of Congress is even more apparent when taking into account that 82% now
disapprove of Congress. In addition, Gallup also notes that
while in the past, party differences could be seen in Congress’ approval
ratings, today, both Republicans and Democrats view Congress with a similarly unenthusiastic
12% approval rating.
