Most Agree Parent's School Protests are Protected by1st Amendment, and Vote-By-Mail Will Cause 'More Cheating'
69% Oppose Democrat's Plan to Have IRS Monitor Your Bank Transactions
More than two-thirds of voters are against Congressional Democrats and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's plans to give the Internal Revenue Service access to data on all bank transactions over $600 – and most also believe Democrats are lying when they say they’ll only raise taxes on the rich.
That's what a new Rasmussen Reports National Telephone & Online Survey conducted October 13th-14th found:- 69% of Likely U.S. Voters are opposed to legislation requiring banks to report data to the IRS on transactions over $600,
- including 55% who strongly oppose the measure.
- Only 23% support the proposal, which is part of the so-called “Build Back Better” agenda Democrats are attempting to push through Congress.
Most Voters Agree – Parent School Protests Protected by 1st Amendment
In spite of President Joe Biden's Justice Department investigating alleged "threats" against Local School Board Officials, when it comes to providing input over the teaching of "Critical Race Theory" and requirements for masks or Vaccine Mandates, most voters agree the widespread parent protests occurring across the nation are “clearly protected by the 1st Amendment.”
- 88% of Likely U.S. Voters believe it is "Very Important for parents to be involved in their children’s education."
- Another 10% say parental involvement is "Somewhat Important."
Vote-by-Mail: Most Voters Think It Will Cause More Cheating
Under the auspices of coping with the COVID-19 Pandemic, last year’s election featured more mail-in voting than ever before allowing in the United States. But now nearly two-thirds of voters believe the result of more mail-in voting availability will be more cheating in elections.- 65% of Likely U.S. Voters believe wider use of mail-in voting will lead to more cheating in elections,
- including 51% who say it’s Very Likely.
- 28% don’t think more mail-in voting will mean more cheating,
- including 14% who say it is Not At All Likely.
Right Direction or Wrong Track
- Just 30% of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the "Right Direction."
Americans have lost hope in the nation’s future since last year, with only a 1/3rd of Americans now believing the country’s "best days" are ahead.
- That’s a steep decline from last November, when 47% of Likely Voters believed the nation’s best days were still ahead.
- As recently as April 2019, an absolute majority of 54% of voters saw America’s best days in the future.
