Congress’ approval rating hasn’t hit 30% in 10 years. That’s a record.

… It’s a common refrain that Americans may not like what Congress overall is doing, but they like the job their own member of Congress is doing. Indeed, it’s true that approval for individual congressmen is almost always significantly higher than it is for either the House or Senate.

Still, I’m not sure we grasp just how awful the ratings for Congress are and how long they’ve been that way. CONT.
