WASHINGTON, June 19 (UPI) -- A historically low 7 percent of U.S. residents trust Congress while 74 percent trust the military, said a Gallup poll released Thursday said.
The share of respondents who said they have a "great deal" or "quite a lot" of confidence in Congress was the lowest since Gallup began polling on the issue in 1973. It was also the lowest confidence level Gallup has found on any institution.
