"Poll: Americans Divided on State of the Union, Optimistic About Economy"

A recent CBS News poll reveals that most Americans perceive the "state of the union" as divided, with negative evaluations such as "declining" and "weak" being the top choices. However, there has been an uptick in positive views regarding the economy, with 39% of respondents rating it as good, the highest since fall 2021. Additionally, immigration and the border situation are key concerns for the public, with most considering it a serious issue. President Biden's approval rating on his handling of the economy has improved slightly, but remains below 50%.
