New Pew Research Poll on Republicans

blindfolded people

  • According to a new Pew Research Poll, a growing number of Republicans believe generally accepted scientific discoveries like evolution is a myth, not even open for debate.
  • It makes us question whether a group of people who live in the most advanced scientific time in history should be leading us on such complex issues as public education, climate change, world affairs or technology.
  • How can Republicans and their Tea Party constituents prepare the next generation of scientists when they’ve closed the door on science?
  • It’s another important reason we must work to remove back-leaning Republicans from leadership roles in our congress and our state.
