62% Say Congress Is Doing A Poor Job

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 62% of voters now rate Congress’ performance as poor, but that’s up six points from a month ago. Seventy-one percent (71%) felt that way in mid-February.

Now, 62% say that no matter how bad things are, Congress can always make them worse.

Although Democrats control both the Senate and the House, just 19% of Democratic voters think Congress is doing a good or excellent job, a view shared by only four percent (4%) of Republicans and seven percent (7%) of voters not affiliated with either major party.
