National Survey of 1,002 U.S. Likely Voters
Conducted July 13 and 16-17, 2023
By Rasmussen Reports

 

1* Whom does the average Congressman listen to the most — the voters he or she represents or party leaders in Congress?

 

 

 

2* Would a group of people selected at random from the phone book do a better job addressing the nation’s problems than the current Congress?

 

 

3* The Declaration of Independence says that governments derive their authority from the consent of the governed. Does the federal government today have the consent of the governed?
