A December survey showed that views of the court had changed little since that point. In the most recent survey, 53% said they had a favorable view of the Supreme Court, while 36% had an unfavorable view. In July 37% said they had an unfavorable opinion of the court.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, the wide partisan differences in views of the Supreme Court that emerged in the wake of the health care ruling remained. In the December survey, 62% of Democrats said they had a favorable opinion of the Supreme Court; that was little changed from July (64%), but 10 points higher than in April (52%).<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By contrast, Republicans continued to express less positive views of the Supreme Court than they did prior to its decision on the Affordable Care Act. In the December survey, 44% said they had a favorable opinion of the court, little changed from July (38%). In April, a 56% majority of Republicans had a favorable view of the court. <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/politics\/2012\/12\/13\/section-1-views-of-obama-congress-the-parties\/#SCOTUS\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.pewresearch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2012\/12\/12-13-12-15.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"409\" height=\"324\"><\/figure><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Negative views of the Supreme Court increased after last June\u2019s health care ruling and at 36% were largely unchanged in December. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":124,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"sub_headline":"","sub_title":"","_prc_public_revisions":[],"_ppp_expiration_hours":0,"_ppp_enabled":false,"ai_generated_summary":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"relatedPosts":[],"datacite_doi":"","datacite_doi_citation":"","_prc_seo_qr_attachment_id":0,"spoken_article_player_enabled":true,"displayBylines":true,"footnotes":"","prc_watchers":[],"_prc_fork_parent":0,"_prc_fork_status":"","_prc_active_fork":0},"categories":[],"bylines":[],"collection":[],"datasets":[],"_post_visibility":[],"formats":[467],"_fund_pool":[],"languages":[],"regions-countries":[515],"research-teams":[],"workflow-status":[],"class_list":["post-16233","short-read","type-short-read","status-publish","hentry","formats-short-read","regions-countries-united-states"],"label":"Short Read","post_parent":0,"word_count":181,"canonical_url":"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/short-reads\/2013\/01\/14\/unfavorable-views-of-supreme-court-up-after-health-care-ruling\/","art_direction":false,"_embeds":[],"watchers":[],"table_of_contents":[],"datacite_doi":"","prc_seo_data":{"title":"Unfavorable Views of Supreme Court Up After 2012 Health Care Ruling","description":"Negative views of the Supreme Court increased after last June\u2019s health care ruling and at 36% were largely unchanged in December.
