Gallup News Americans’ trust in various U.S. federal government institutions remains mired near five-decade lows. Forty-five percent of U.S. adults have a great deal or fair amount of trust in the federal government to handle international problems, and 38% trust the government to handle domestic problems. Trust in the three branches of the federal government ranges from 32% for the legislative branch to 49% for the judicial branch. Two decades ago, all five measures showed trust above the majority level, and as recently as 2012, majorities trusted all but the legislative branch. These trust figures, measured in Gallup’s Sept. 2-16 Governance poll, are statistically similar to what they were a year ago. However, that overall stability masks large partisan shifts. Republican confidence on all five trust items has increased sharply, most dramatically for the executive branch (up 83 percentage points) and the government’s ability to handle international problems (up 64 points) and domestic problems (up 57 points). Meanwhile, Democrats’ trust has tumbled on these same three measures by 56 to 78 points and is also down significantly for the legislative branch. READ THE FULL STORY

Most of us believe that our state legislatures are making our laws. But what if that is only partially true? What if a third-party was making the laws for your state? Would you be OK with that? Would you be concerned to find out that two private entities are making the laws your state uses regarding commerce?
