Approval for the Supreme Court itself is also up modestly, with the judicial branch seeing newly bipartisan goodwill. Last Monday, the Supreme Court ruled that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 protects LGBTQ employees from discrimination at work on the basis of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Then, last Thursday, the court ruled to keep DACA in place, shielding nearly 650,000 undocumented young people from deportation. Americans currently approve of the Supreme Court, 46% to 35%. Underlying that positive impression is a newfound partisan consensus: Nearly identical shares of Republicans (54%) and Democrats (56%) currently say they approve.
