Biden hits 59 percent approval rating in Pew poll
A majority of Americans 59 percent approve of President Biden's handling of his job nearly as he approaches 100 days in office, according to a Pew Research Center poll released Friday.
The poll found Biden's job approval is up 5 percentage points from 54 percent in March, while 39 percent of those surveyed said they disapprove of his work thus far.
Biden's 59 percent approval rating is 20 percentage points higher than that of former President Trump's in a Pew poll from April 2017 and is similar to the approval ratings of former presidents Obama and George W. Bush in April of their first terms.
Biden has been buoyed by support for his tone and rhetoric, as well as his handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
The Pew poll found 72 percent of Americans believe the Biden administration has done an excellent or good job managing vaccine production and distribution
