Following last week’s school shooting that left 17 dead, Americans rate more gun control on the same level with treatment of the mentally ill as the best way to stop incidents of this kind. Support’s up for more gun control. But then just 54% think most children are safe in school these days.
The president’s plan to fix the nation’s ailing infrastructure calls for generating $1.5 trillion in upgrades through ventures involving the federal government, state government and private industry. Most voters like the idea of finding outside sources to help fund the infrastructure plan.
Just 33% of Americans rate the safety of roads, bridges, dams, tunnels and the like in the area where they live as good or excellent. But only slightly more (35%) are willing to pay anything extra in taxes each year to upgrade and improve America’s infrastructure.
Even though this Congress dodged the shutdown bullet and passed the biggest reform of the tax code in decades, voters continue to give it low marks. Just 31% think Congress is even somewhat likely to seriously address the most important problems facing the nation.
