Most Americans believe Democrats should end the current government shutdown, according to a recent Harvard CAPS/Harris poll. The shutdown has led to concerns that service members and federal employees may not receive their next paycheck. There are also warnings about potential threats to food assistance programs for low-income women and children, as well as possible negative impacts on state economies and job security.
The poll comes amid ongoing disputes in Congress, with criticism directed at Democrats over their stance on providing health care benefits to undocumented immigrants.
A link to the full results of the Harvard CAPS/Harris poll was provided in the announcement.
