National Public Consultation Results
Voice of the People’s partner, the Program for Public Consultation at the University of Maryland, has conducted dozens of national public consultation surveys on pressing policy issues before Congress. By clicking on the policy issue of your choice, you will be able to review the national and partisan results of each public consultation, as well as demographic breakdowns on race, age, income, and education. After reading through survey results, you can try out the policymaking simulations that respondents went through to make their recommendations.
