Satisfaction With Direction of U.S. Down in March

Americans’ satisfaction with the way things are going in the U.S. dropped in March from its recent high last month, as the post-State of the Union bump in enthusiasm faded and headlines were dominated by one of the deadliest shootings in U.S. history. The current 28% who say they are satisfied with the direction of the country is down eight percentage points from 36% in February, returning to where it was in January. CONT.
