As the bill and the draft policy bill of “a large bill” defended by President Donald Trump makes its way through the votes in Congress, surveys taken during the past month show that Americans disapprove largely, but are more divided when it comes to their views about some of their provisions.

Trump has emphasized that he believes that Americans support their bill as an emblematic agenda in which he campaigned. He told reporters in a promotional event on Thursday: “Almost all important promises made in the 2024 campaign will have already become a promise maintained. That is very important.”

A survey from the University of Quinnipiac de Gran range Posted on Thursday That was taken at the end of June discovered that a small majority of registered voters oppose the bill, but are more divided into a provision that would create new requirements to ensure through Medicaid.

The bill would impose new work requirements for Medicaid receptors with body so that they do not have dependents. When asked how they feel about Medicaid’s dispositions, voters were largely divided: 47% of registered voters said they support them and 46% said they oppose them, indeed a dead heat.

Meanwhile, an American adult survey Taken at the beginning of June In the Washington Post and Ipsos they found a plurality of adults, 42%, opposing the bill and 23% support. But at that time, 34% of American adults said they had no opinion about it, and separately, 66% said they had only heard a little or nothing about the bill.

However, 49% of Americans told Washington Post and Ipsos at that time that they would support to extend the tax cuts of the 2017 tax and job cuts law, a provision of the bill, although their support increased to 71% when asked if they would support or oppose the tax cuts for persons that have less than $ 100,000 He asked people above $ 400,000 or in tax cuts.

Separately, 54% of Americans also felt that the bill would have a “mostly negative effect in the country”, while 3 out of 10 felt a “mostly positive effect” would have.

But similar to the Washington Post survey, Pew discovered that about half of the Americans would favor creating work requirements for Medicaid, with a opposite 32%.

A disposition on money for the border security application, which was framed as an increase in financing to stop and deport undocumented immigrants, divided American adults. 45% said they oppose and 41% said they favor.
