Meanwhile, 35% of Democrats agreed while 31% disagreed. Independent and unaffiliated young voters also showed a high degree of support for parental rights in education, with 44% agreeing and 20% disagreeing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The poll therefore shows broad support for the parental rights movement across party lines for young Americans, which has gained steam following the revelation of leftist agendas in many curricula and government schools closing their doors over COVID-19.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>As The Daily Wire previously <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/as-private-and-charter-schools-grew-1-4-million-children-left-traditional-public-schools-during-covid\"><span>reported<\/span><\/a><span>, homeschooling rates across the United States grew between 5.4% and 11% from March 2020 to September 2020 alone.

While 38% approve of full debt cancellation, 27% agree with the government assisting with repayment options that do not involve debt cancellation; 21% prefer debt cancellation for those with the most need, and 13% believe that the government should not alter its current policy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Although support for full cancellation increased by 5% since 2020, preference for the government helping with repayment fell by 8%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Prominent Democrats \u2014 including Rep.

And yet, you know, student loan debt and significant forgiveness of student loans, what the president can do to serve them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Indeed, the Harvard Kennedy School poll shows that support for President Biden among young people has fallen 18% in the past year. While 36% of respondents referred to Biden\u2019s \u201cineffectiveness,\u201d 14% pointed to \u201cnot following through on campaign promises\u201d and 10% referenced \u201cnot sharing my values.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies for breaking news, investigative reporting, sports, podcasts, in-depth analysis, books, and entertainment for a reason: because we believe in what we do.
