A majority of voters want new infrastructure spending to be paid for by other spending💵 cuts, not tax increases or adding to the national debt. 68% of GOP voters feel the same, compared to just 31% of Democrats.
A plurality of voters prefer a smaller $500 billion spending package focused solely on infrastructure🛣️ projects compared to Biden's proposed $2 trillion spending package, $1.5 billion of which is allocated to non-infrastructure projects.
A small percentage of voters consider childcare (12%), paid family leave (10%), Medicaid (14%), and elderly care (14%) to be infrastructure. 75% consider highways, bridges🌉, and roads to be infrastructure.
If given the choice, voters would focus more on core infrastructure🚢 projects rather than the other non-infrastructure ventures the Biden plan allocates spending towards.
Up +3% points from March, @JoeBiden's overall approval👍 rating is far higher than his approval rating for immigration - a majority of voters disapprove of his job handling this issue.
In a non-Trump 2024 GOP🐘 Primary, @GovRonDeSantis maintains his lead from March with 20% of support. Former VP @Mike_Pence comes in at a close second with 16% of support.
Among GOP voters who say they're Trump-first, @GovRonDeSantis leads with 24% of support, with @DonaldJTrumpJr in 2nd🥈 with 15%. @Mike_Pence leads with Party-first Republicans with 24% of support.
A majority of GOP🐘 voters want Trump to run in 2024, while only 32% of total registered voters feel the same.
The Republican Party is evenly divided➗ between Trump-first and Party-first members: 47% say they're Party-first, while 44% say they're Trump-first.
When given the option to donate $1,000💰 to political campaigns or causes, GOP voters overall said they'd donate the most to electing Republicans to state or local offices. In contrast, Trump-first voters said they'd donate the most to funding Trump's political interests.
