A new poll was conducted to gauge where Americans stand on President Donald Trump's latest budget proposal. Just 23% of respondents said they support the legislation, while 42% oppose it. Another 34% said they don't have a strong opinion either way. A second poll conducted by
KFF (formerly the Kaiser Family Foundation), reportedly showed even more bleak numbers for the administration — with 64% expressing unfavorable views of the bill and just 35% voicing support.

According to The Washington Post's polls, opposition to the bill centers around three major areas:
–Extending tax cuts for individuals earning more than $400,000 per year
–Cutting federal funding for food assistance to low-income families
–Allocating $45 billion to build and maintain migrant detention centers
Of the three concerns, the proposed cuts to food assistance sparked the strongest backlash with 66% of respondents opposing the measure, while only 23% support it.

Despite the backlash, Donald Trump has stood behind the bill. "This is arguably the most significant piece of legislation that will ever be signed in the history of our country!" he posted
on X.
