Congress Disapproval Rating Hits All-Time High In NBC/WSJ Poll, Obama Approval Drops
Posted in: Today's ChiliA NBC/Wall Street Journal poll released Wednesday finds that Americans’ disapproval of Congress has reached unprecedented levels, while approval of President Barack Obama has dropped significantly.
According to the survey, 83 percent of Americans disapprove of the job Congress is doing in Washington, an all-time high in the poll. Just 12 percent approve of Congress’ job, while 57 percent they would replace every member of Congress if they could.
NBC/WSJ also finds that the president’s approval rating has dropped to 45 percent, down from 48 percent last month. Obama’s new approval rating is the lowest in the poll since August 2011, when the president was entangled in a standoff over the debt ceiling with House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and other congressional Republicans.
