Poll reveals Americans' attitudes on GOP health care bill

Most Americans -- 52 percent -- disapprove of the Graham-Cassidy health care bill, according to a CBS News Poll conducted between Sept. 21 and 24.

Only 20 percent of those polled said they approved of the Republican legislation aimed at repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act signed into law by President Obama.

Overall, more than a quarter of those surveyed by CBS News declined to give an opinion of the GOP bill, but those who did express an opinion said they disapproved by more than two to one.

Those who said they disapproved of the Republican's second attempt to repeal and replace the legislation known as "Obamacare" tended to say they "strongly" disapprove. Even among the Republicans who said they approved of the bill, more describe themselves as being "somewhat" approving than "strongly" approving.Fewer than half (46 percent) of Republicans said they approved of the Graham-Cassidy bill, which is expected to come up for a vote in Congress on Wednesday. Only 18 percent of independents approved, and just two percent of Democrats gave it their backing.
