According to a new referendum, Democrats' trust in Congress leaders has fallen to an all-time low.
The Congressional rating of Democratic leaders' trust ratings took place between April 1-14, with a 25% Gallup poll released Thursday. This is nine points below the previous 34% low recorded in 2023.
According to Gallup, Republican Congressional leadership has 39% confidence, far surpassing the 24% low hit in 2014.
