Job Approval http://www.gallup.com/ http://backend.userland.com/rss Gallup WebTeam Approval of Congress has reached an all-time low reading of 14%, having dropped five points over the past month. The decline from last month is almost all because of depressed ratings from Democrats. http://www.gallup.com/poll/108856/Congressional-Approval-Hits-RecordLow-14.aspx Wed, 16 Jul 2008 04:00:00 GMT The latest Gallup Poll finds the approval ratings for President Bush (30%), Congress (19%), and the Supreme Court (48%) all on the low end of what Gallup has measured historically. http://www.gallup.com/poll/108010/Bush-Congress-Supreme-Court-Near-Historical-Low-Approval.aspx Mon, 16 Jun 2008 14:45:00 GMT Approval of Congress has dipped below 20% for only the fourth time in Gallup history, tying the record low of 18%. President Bush’s 29% approval rating is only one point above his personal worst approval scores, recorded in April and earlier in May. http://www.gallup.com/poll/107242/Congress-Approval-Rating-Ties-Lowest-Gallup-Records.aspx Wed, 14 May 2008 04:00:00 GMT Only 27% of Americans say the United Nations is doing a good job in its role, the lowest recorded in more than a half century of Gallup measurements. http://www.gallup.com/poll/104806/Americans-Opinion-UN-Record-Low.aspx Thu, 06 Mar 2008 12:00:00 GMT George W. Bush has a 37% job approval rating in the latest Gallup Poll, an improvement from his recent readings, but still low by historical standards. Twenty-two percent of Americans approve of Congress, little changed from last month, and also on the low end of the historical spectrum. http://www.gallup.com/poll/103225/Update-Ratings-Bush-Congress.aspx Wed, 12 Dec 2007 04:00:00 GMT Across 12 nations in the Middle East and North Africa, many people are more likely to approve of the leadership of Japan, China, France, and Germany than that of the United States, United Kingdom, and Russia. http://www.gallup.com/poll/102694/Mideast-North-Africa-Views-Powerful-Nations-Differ.aspx Tue, 13 Nov 2007 12:45:00 GMT Fifty-six percent of Americans believe NASA is doing an excellent or a good job. Its ratings are similar to what they have been in recent years, and have typically been in positive territory historically. http://www.gallup.com/poll/102466/Americans-Continue-Rate-NASA-Positively.aspx Wed, 31 Oct 2007 04:00:00 GMT Americans’ approval ratings of Congress and their satisfaction with the state of the nation are little changed this month. Roughly one-quarter of the public approves of the job Congress is doing, and a similar percentage of Americans say they are satisfied with the way things are going in the country. The public continues to say the war in Iraq is the most important problem facing the nation right now. http://www.gallup.com/poll/101764/Congressional-Job-Approval-Public-Mood-Still-20-Range.aspx Wed, 10 Oct 2007 00:00:00 GMT Gallup's annual Governance survey shows Americans generally expressing less trust in the federal government than at any point in the past decade, and trust in many federal government institutions is even lower now than during the Watergate era. The distrust is mainly directed at those in Washington, as Americans' level of trust in state and local governments is holding steady. http://www.gallup.com/poll/28795/Low-Trust-Federal-Government-Rivals-Watergate-Era-Levels.aspx Wed, 26 Sep 2007 05:00:00 GMT Public opinion of the job the U.S. Supreme Court is doing is unchanged from earlier this year, and perceptions of the ideological direction of the court are similar to a year ago, with the plurality saying it is "about right." However, over the long term, Americans have grown increasingly likely to say the court is "too conservative." http://www.gallup.com/poll/28798/Slim-Majority-Americans-Approve-Supreme-Court.aspx Wed, 26 Sep 2007 05:00:00 GMT A new Gallup Poll shows the largest one-month increase in Congressional support since the Democrats took majority control in January. At 24%, Congress approval is still on the low end of the historical range for this indicator; however it is a significant improvement over last month's 18%. The increase is seen nearly exclusively among Republicans. The timing suggests Gen. Petraeus' testimony before Congress could be a factor. http://www.gallup.com/poll/28741/Congress-Approval-Rises-Slightly-24.aspx Thu, 20 Sep 2007 05:00:00 GMT Ratings of Congress are near all-time lows and much of this frustration is due to perceived inaction on the part of Congress -- either in general, or in regards to specific issues such as the Iraq war or illegal immigration. Many Americans disapprove of Congress because of party bickering or disagreements with the way Congress operates. The relatively small proportion of Americans who approve of Congress give them credit for trying. http://www.gallup.com/poll/28600/Perceived-Inaction-Largely-Behind-Low-Ratings-Congress.aspx Wed, 05 Sep 2007 05:00:00 GMT Upon his resignation, Gallup provides a retrospective analysis of public opinion regarding Alberto Gonzales. http://www.gallup.com/video/28534/Retrospective.aspx Tue, 28 Aug 2007 05:00:00 GMT Hillary Clinton is miles ahead of her competitors in the latest Gallup Poll. http://www.gallup.com/video/28471/Hers-Lose.aspx Wed, 22 Aug 2007 05:00:00 GMT Only 18% of Americans approve of the job Congress is doing, matching the low point in 30+ years of Gallup tracking congressional approval. The other 18% rating came in 1992, when term limit fever was sweeping the nation. The nine-percentage point drop in Congress' approval rating from last month to this month has come among Democrats and independents, and now Democrats rate the Democratic-controlled Congress similarly to Republicans. http://www.gallup.com/poll/28456/Congress-Approval-Rating-Matches-Historical-Low.aspx Tue, 21 Aug 2007 05:00:00 GMT New approval numbers for Congress tie Gallup's all time low. http://www.gallup.com/video/28465/Historic-Low.aspx Tue, 21 Aug 2007 05:00:00 GMT Gallup updates Mitt Romney's positioning in the presidential race in light of his victory in the Iowa straw poll. http://www.gallup.com/video/28453/Romney-Upswing.aspx Fri, 17 Aug 2007 17:00:00 GMT As he prepares a key report on the Iraq War, Americans weigh in on General David Petraeus. http://www.gallup.com/video/28396/Commanding-Role.aspx Tue, 14 Aug 2007 05:00:00 GMT New job performance ratings of the nation's executive and legislative leaders are essentially unchanged compared to Gallup's previous readings. President Bush's new 34% approval rating moves him a clear step away from the record low score of 29% he received a month ago. However, current job approval ratings of the Republicans and Democrats in Congress are roughly tied with their lowest scores. http://www.gallup.com/poll/28324/Little-Change-Job-Ratings-Bush-Congressional-Parties.aspx Tue, 07 Aug 2007 05:00:00 GMT A recent Gallup Poll finds congressional job approval ratings at 27%, up a slight three points since last month but still lower than it was earlier this year when the Democrats took control of both houses of Congress. Congressional job approval is low among both Republicans and Democrats, but Republicans' ratings have now fallen to the lowest point since President Bush took office in 2001, dropping below 20%. http://www.gallup.com/poll/28201/Congress-Job-Approval-27.aspx Tue, 24 Jul 2007 05:00:00 GMT Americans' ratings of Vice President Dick Cheney are now at their lowest point to date, according to a new Gallup Poll. Thirty percent of Americans say they approve of the way Cheney is handling his job as vice president, and the same percentage also say they have a favorable view of him. Although Republicans rate Cheney more positively than do independents or Democrats, Republicans' ratings are at their lowest levels since Cheney took office in 2001. http://www.gallup.com/poll/28159/Americans-Ratings-Dick-Cheney-Reach-New-Lows.aspx Wed, 18 Jul 2007 05:00:00 GMT Sixty-two percent of Americans say the United States made a mistake in sending troops to Iraq, the highest level of opposition to the war Gallup has measured. Most Americans think the recent surge in the number of U.S. troops in Iraq is not having much impact, with slightly more saying it is making the situation worse rather than better. Seventy-one percent favor a proposal to withdraw most U.S. troops from Iraq by next April. http://www.gallup.com/poll/28099/Latest-Poll-Shows-High-Point-Opposition-Iraq-War.aspx Wed, 11 Jul 2007 05:00:00 GMT Just 11% of blacks are satisfied with the way things are going in the country, according to the 2007 update on Gallup's Minority Rights and Relations survey. National satisfaction among blacks, Hispanics, and whites, while not significantly different from last year, has never been lower in the seven-year history of this poll. Blacks are also much less likely than whites or Hispanics to say they are "very satisfied" with their personal lives. http://www.gallup.com/poll/28039/Only-11-Blacks-Satisfied-State-Nation-Right-Now.aspx Tue, 03 Jul 2007 05:00:00 GMT Americans' confidence in Congress is the lowest in Gallup history, and has the lowest confidence rating tested in Gallup's annual measure of confidence in major American institutions. Confidence ratings in other institutions are also generally down across the board compared with last year. The low confidence ratings are connected to Americans' broader overall malaise with the state of the country at this juncture in history. http://www.gallup.com/poll/27946/Americans-Confidence-Congress-AllTime-Low.aspx Thu, 21 Jun 2007 05:00:00 GMT Public approval of Congress fell five points over the past month. This puts Congress' ratings back to where they were before the 2006 elections, thus ending the slight honeymoon seen after Democrats won a majority of seats in both houses. The current 24% approval is near historically low levels. Public satisfaction with the way things are going in the country is little changed since last month but still at its lowest point in over a decade. http://www.gallup.com/poll/27937/Congressional-Job-Approval-Dips-Again-Month.aspx Wed, 20 Jun 2007 05:00:00 GMT
