Trust in the federal government remains low, down slightly from last year

How much do you trust the federal government?

The Partnership did not ask this specific question with comparable wording in 2021. In 2022, the question wording included "national government." There was no yearly survey in 2023.

The question was asked on a scale of 0 to 10. "Do not trust" includes answers from 0 to 4. "Neutral" includes answers of 5. "Trust" includes answers from 6 to 10. Those who answered "don't know" are not shown.
