(CTN News) – The Supreme Court will rule on a number of important issues in the coming weeks, but Americans can agree on one thing: neither Republicans nor Democrats feel the court is politically unbiased.

20% thought the Supreme Court is unbiased, 58% did not.

The other comments either expressed ignorance or remained silent. Only 10% of Democrats who identified as Democrats thought it was politically neutral, while 74% strongly disagreed. Only 29% of Republicans agreed with the claim, while 54% disagreed.

The study, which lasted two days and closed on Thursday, drew 1,136 responses from American adults. All findings, whether good or negative, had a three-point margin of error. The Supreme Court has recently issued some historic rulings.

Some of these rulings include the expansion of gun rights, the reversal of abortion rights, the elimination of racial discrimination in college admissions, the acceptance of the president’s immunity from prosecution for official activities, and the unification of federal agency powers.

The court has a conservative majority of 6-3, including the three judges Trump appointed in his first year in office. More than half of survey respondents viewed the court favorably. In total, 67% of Republicans and 26% of Democrats match this definition. The Supreme Court falls under this group as well.

Since the Supreme Court’s June 2022 decision overturning the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, which legalized abortion nationwide, the court’s popularity has declined. According to a Reuters and Ipsos poll conducted around the end of 2021, 57% of respondents supported the court.

This percentage had fallen to 43% by the end of June 2022. The justices are expected to rule on important issues in the coming weeks as their current term, which began in October, comes to an end.

One of these arguments involves the legality of a Supreme Court Tennessee statute sponsored by Republicans that prevents transgender youngsters from receiving gender-affirming medical care. Another issue is President Trump’s executive order, which limits automatic birthright citizenship.

Two examples of Trump’s divisive immigration policies.

The most recent poll found that 53% of respondents support “laws that prohibit transgender children under the age of 18 from receiving medical treatment related to gender identity and gender transitioning.”

Approximately one-third of poll respondents opposed the legislation, with the remainder either unaware or not responding at all.

However, 57% of Republicans backed such programs, compared to only 28% of Democrats. Democrats, on the other hand, were 23% in support and 54% opposed. The Supreme Court conservative justices made it clear during the December arguments that they are inclined to support the measure.

After signing the birthright citizenship decree in January, President Trump was sued by pregnant immigrants, 22 states, and immigration rights organizations. They claimed that the order violated the US Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment, which covers citizenship.

Only 24% of respondents supported ending birthright citizenship, while 52% strongly disagreed with Trump’s stance. 84% of Democrats opposed repealing it, while only 5% supported it. 43% of Republicans favored the repeal, while 25% opposed it.

The other respondents either did not react at all or were unsure of their response. By the end of June, the Supreme Court is expected to rule on the legality of a Texas law that requires users to present evidence of age before accessing pornographic websites.

According to the report, such programs enjoy widespread support. Fourteen percent of respondents opposed it, while seventy percent supported it. Just 7% of Republicans opposed it, while 80% supported it. Approximately 65% of Democrats supported it, while 18% opposed it.

In January, the judges appeared to agree that states might take steps to prevent children from seeing pornographic content. They did, however, voice some concern about the restrictions that adults must meet to access content protected by the constitution.
