The latest Politico/Morning Consult Poll shows that Biden’s infrastructure plan is actually slightly more popular when the cost is mentioned.
Politico reported:
In our latest POLITICO/Morning Consult poll, Biden’s latest big piece of proposed legislation, the American Families Plan, clocks 58% support among registered voters, including 54% of independents and 25% of Republicans. The most popular individual component is free universal preschool, which commands 63% support.
The most fascinating finding in the poll: Support for Biden’s infrastructure plan was 1 point higher when the price tag was mentioned (57%) than when it wasn’t (56%). When was the last time you saw that for a massive chunk of government spending? … Taking a step back, voters listed reducing health care costs as their top priority for Congress — ahead of even recovering from the pandemic.
It turns out that a substantial majority of Americans want to spend money to fix the country. The other illuminating point from these numbers is that Biden’s message is resonating with voters, while the Republican lip service concern about the cost is falling on deaf ears.
