Public Opinions On The Health Law Vary
Americans may not agree on much lately, but one opinion is nearly universal: There鈥檚 almost no chance that President Barack Obama, a Democrat, and the Republican Congress can work together to solve the country鈥檚 problems. What does the public think they鈥檒l be able to do? A majority say Obama is likely to prevent Congress from repealing the health care law passed in 2010, while nearly half say the GOP is likely to block Obama鈥檚 executive order on immigration. (12/11)
A record number of Americans want the Affordable Care Act repealed, according to a new Fox News poll. If given the choice between repealing the health care law or keeping it, 58 percent would repeal it, while 38 percent would keep it, the December poll of registered voters found. (Villacorta, 12/11)
