Here are other key survey findings on specific issues:
— 88% support creating a universal childcare or early childhood education program at low or no cost to families of all incomes.
— 84% support a path to permanent legal status and citizenship for long-residing undocumented immigrants who pass a background check and pay a fine.
— 83% support regulating artificial intelligence (AI) so that humans, not AI systems, stay in control of military weapons, banks and Americans’ personal information.
