Americans’ understanding of basic facts about the U.S. government declined for the first time in six years, as fewer than half in a new survey could name all three branches of government, The Hill reports.
The Annenberg Public Policy Center’s annual Constitution Day Civics Survey found a significant drop in the percentage of Americans who could name all three branches of government — executive, legislative, and judicial — falling by 9 percentage points from a year earlier.
About a quarter of Americans surveyed could not name a single branch.
The survey also found a decline in the number of respondents who could name any of the five freedoms guaranteed under the First Amendment. Freedom of religion was named by 24 percent of those surveyed, falling from 56 percent from the previous survey. Those who named freedom of the press also declined sharply down by 30 percentage points from 50 percent in 2021. Around 26 percent of respondents could not name any First Amendment freedoms. And the percentage of respondents who listed the right to bear arms — a right protected under the Second Amendment — as a First Amendment protection tripled from 2021 rising to 9 percent.

Ah! And the problem according to NY is with our schools? Ah nechdege tog!
May Yaffed disappear like the dust in the wind.
Worse, they end up in Congress.. Ask AOC.
And will these schools get defunded like chareidi schools by the Board of Regents?
Where is the NY Times on this? Do they claim that Americans’ understanding of basic facts about the U.S. government declined all learn in chareidi schools?
Maybe they didn’t know it because the three branches are all so corrupt and rotten to the core, headed by criminal swamp which President Trump is currently eradicating.
