Joe Biden,Public Opinion,White House,Politics
President Joe Biden’s approval rating fell to 38% in March after hovering above 40% over the past few months, according to an AP-NORC poll, as Americans remained concerned about the president’s handling of the economy amid concerns about the financial health of the banking sector.
According to the poll, Biden’s approval rating as of March is just two points above his lowest approval rating of 36%, which was reported in July last year amid surging inflation and steep fuel prices.
His latest rating is down markedly from 45% in February.
People’s approval of his handling of the economy stands at only 31%—significantly lower than his overall approval rating.
Democrats' opinion largely influenced that figure, with 63% approving of the way Biden has handled the economy—down from 66%—compared to an overall approval rating of 76% among Democratic voters.
