In the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation/Harvard/Washington Post Role of Government poll, Americans share their opinions about the appropriate duties and functions of the government. How much confidence do they have in Washington? Do they feel that their rights are being threatened by government policies? What possible reforms could be made to improve the government? There are also several questions about specific government areas, including Congress, the Supreme Court, and the presidency. This survey allows the politicians and government officials to see what the people have to say about their practices.
