November 22, 2021: According to a survey conducted between Nov. 15-16, forty-three percent (43%) of voters know that the infrastructure bill has been passed. The survey was conducted over the 24 hours following President Biden’s (D) signing of the infrastructure bill. This survey was conducted before the Build Back Better bill was passed by the House on Nov. 19.[1]
Prior to the Build Back Better bill's passage, 36% knew that it had not been passed.[1]
One-out-of-five voters (19%) answered both questions correctly.[1]
There was little partisan difference on the question about the infrastructure bill. As for the Build Back Better proposal, Democrats were somewhat more likely (36% to 32%) to mistakenly believe it had passed. On both questions, older voters were more informed than younger voters.[1]
