What They Told Us: Reviewing Last Week’s Key Polls
In surveys last week, this is what America told Rasmussen Reports:
- President Trump ended the polling week on Friday with a daily job approval of 43%.
- More voters support amnesty for illegal immigrants than favor deportation, but Republicans overwhelmingly continue to support deporting foreigners who are in the United States illegally.
- The current two-week ceasefire in the war against Iran probably won’t produce long-term peace, most voters say, but they also don’t want to see a renewal of U.S. attacks.
- Although nearly half of voters believe President Donald Trump’s administration has more corruption than his predecessors, most aren’t sold on Democrats as the solution.
- The use of government power to punish political enemies is a big problem for America, according to a majority of voters.
- Vice President J.D. Vance continues to lead other potential Republican contenders for the party’s 2028 presidential nomination, although Secretary of State Marco Rubio has gained popularity.
- Evangelical Christians are more likely than other Americans – including Catholics – to consider extramarital sex and abortion to be morally wrong.
- On the eve of the April 15 federal income tax deadline, millions of Americans still haven’t finished filing with the Internal Revenue Service.
- Thirty-nine percent (39%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction.
