Support for health overhaul down; GOP asks Kagan if she would recuse herself from cases on new law
Support for the new health reform law has dropped seven percentage points in the last two months, though it remains higher than when the law was first signed in March. “Forty-nine percent of Americans now disapprove of the health care reform measure, according to the poll, which was conducted July 9-12. Thirty-six percent support the law. In a May CBS News poll, 47 percent disapproved of the new laws, while 43 percent approved. While the new poll shows a recent drop in support, the numbers have still improved overall since March, when 53 percent of Americans disapproved of the new laws and 32 percent said they approved of them.”
