The Pew Research Center is out with its latest public opinion survey on the health care reform law. Quoting from the accompanying news release:
Overall, 47% approve of the law, while 45% disapprove. The 47% approval
represents an uptick in support since January 2011 (41% approve vs. 48%
disapprove). Since the bill became law on March 23, 2010, disapproval of
the legislation has been fairly steady, ranging from 44% in April 2010
to 48% in January 2011. Approval has shown somewhat more movement, from a
low of 35% in July 2010, to a high of 47% in the current survey.
Pew also provides a table with many demographic comparisons. The reform law is most popular among Black and Hispanic respondents, 18-29 year-olds, holders of a bachelor's degree or higher, respondents with a family income of $30,000 or less, and Democrats. Slightly more political independents disapprove (47%) than approve (44%) of the law, with Republicans heavily in opposition.
