Abstract

Recent decisions by the US Supreme Court such as the overturning of Roe. vs Wade have raised questions about the institution’s legitimacy in the eyes of the American public. In a new study, Jin Woo Kim and María Celeste Wagner look at whether the Roe decision has affected trust in the Supreme Court. They find that since 2018, trust in the Supreme Court has become increasingly partisan with Democratic voters’ trust falling from 60 to 16 percent while Republicans’ confidence has remained almost the same. They also find that there is little difference in trust in the Supreme Court between men and women.
