Less than a year later, new Gallup numbers show that just 18% of people approve of the job Congress is doing, the lowest that number has been since Joe Biden became President. Here's why that's worrisome for Democrats:1) Everyone knows -- or will know by Election Day 2022 -- that Democrats are in control of the House and Senate (not to mention the White House). 2) Democrats have gone from thrilled at how Congress was doing (61% approval in January 2021) to decidedly "meh" (26% approval) in the space of the last year. "Democrats' approval of Congress fell as infighting among Democratic legislators held up passage of Biden's climate change and social spending bill. With Biden's legislative agenda still stalled, Democrats' latest 26% approval of the legislative branch is the lowest it has been in a year."
