A Politico/Morning Consult poll released Wednesday revealed that just 35 percent of voters approve of the GOP-backed health-care bill that the Senate is poised to vote on next week. Almost half of voters, 49 percent, disapprove of the American Health Care Act outright.
These numbers mark a decline from early last month, when the House narrowly voted to advance the unpopular bill; immediately after the bill's passage, 38 percent approved of the bill and 44 percent disapproved of it.
