Majority of adults say Washington under Biden hurts more than helps with top concerns: poll

People are losing faith in Washington’s ability to tackle their top concerns four months out from the 2022 midterm elections when Democrats are defending their slim majorities in the House and Senate.

The public, according to a Monmouth University poll released Tuesday, has soured on President Biden and both parties in Congress as they grow more and more concerned with inflation, rising gas prices and the economy.

The Monmouth survey showed that 57% of adults say the actions of the federal government over the past six months have hurt their families when it comes to the most pressing issues.
