The poll published Tuesday shows that 51% of the participants say that the Biden administration’s policies have not helped the middle class, while only 10% believe that middle-class families have “benefited a lot.” Fifty-nine percent of independents and 78% of Republican voters agree that Biden’s policies did not help the middle class.
