New Poll: 62% of Americans Oppose GOP Plan to Dismantle Health Care Reform Law

Politics Daily summarizes a new Kaiser Family Foundation/Harvard School of Health poll conducted January 4-14: "Americans oppose the idea of using the appropriations process to cut off the funding needing to put health reform into place by a 62 percent to 33 percent margin, with 6 percent undecided...A key factor in the contrast between these findings is the attitude of independents. While 47 percent of them want the law repealed outright or replaced with a Republican alternative, compared to 40 percent who would expand it or keep it as is, they reject using the power of the purse to whittle down the law by a 62 percent to 32 percent margin, with 6 percent undecided."
