Contributing sentiments towards policy:

56% : House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has vowed the GOP won't touch Medicare or Social Security, programs that share bipartisan support, particularly among elderly voters.
51% : Biden's plan has little chance of becoming law, especially after Republicans took control of the House of Representatives this year, but the proposal is an important signpost for negotiations over government spending, and offers the president a chance to publicly outline his priorities.
49% : The plan would also dedicate the proceeds from a tax created as part of Obamacare -- known as the net investment income tax -- to the Hospital Insurance Trust Fund.
46% : But Democrats, including Biden, have repeatedly highlighted past GOP efforts to overhaul the entitlement programs by reducing eligibility or benefits.
42% : The moves are part of a concerted effort by the White House ahead of looming negotiations over the debt ceiling and government funding, where Republicans vow to seek deep cuts to federal spending.
