Gov't Ratings

From News Nation:

“Majority of US government agencies receive poor job-performance ratings”

Only four out of 16 federal government agencies and departments received positive performance ratings from most Americans in 2023, according to a Gallup survey.  This marks the third consecutive year of relatively low ratings.   The agencies that earned positive evaluations with more than half of U.S. adults rating them as “excellent” or “good” include:  

On the flip side, the other 12 government agencies received ratings such as “only fair” or “poor.” The IRS received the lowest regard, with only 30%, while agencies like the Veterans Administration (VA), Department of Justice, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Federal Reserve Board, and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had ratings ranging from 32% to 38%.

Gallup has been periodically gauging Americans’ opinions of various federal agencies and departments since 2003, with NASA being tracked since 1990. However, for about half of these agencies, the trends started in 2009 or later. Between 2019 and 2021, many agency ratings experienced a significant decline, and none have yet fully recovered to their pre-pandemic levels.   USPS stands out as the only agency among the 16 that has consistently maintained positive majority-level ratings since 2003. These poor agency ratings coincide with a period of reduced satisfaction regarding the direction of the country and a lack of confidence in U.S. institutions.

^ This doesn’t surprise me in the least. ^
