Congress is back for its lame-duck session and Gallup was right there to welcome lawmakers back with a survey conducted Nov. 13-16 saying three-quarters of Americans don't approve of the job it is doing. Nineteen percent gave them a pat on the back. The all-time low in the approval rating was 14 percent, recorded in July. The dim view cut was held pretty much equally by Republicans, Democrats and independents.
