Survey of 1,067 US Likely Voters
Conducted April 30 - May 4, 2025 by Rasmussen Reports and the Heartland Institute

1.     2024 Vote

2.     Trump Approval

3.     Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming a significantly more important part of the U.S. economy and society. How concerned are you about AI?

4.     As government agencies and businesses continue to expand their use of AI, artificial intelligence will play an increasingly larger role in the economy and society. This raises serious concerns about how AI might treat people. Would you support a state or federal law that would require developers and technology companies to design AI so that it protects the human rights contained in the Constitution, such as freedom of speech and freedom of religious expression?

5.     Do you believe that over the next decade AI will be used more to empower individuals or to control them?

6.     Some AI developers want to use artificial intelligence to help cure diseases and other societal problems. Would you support allowing AI systems to have access to health records, financial data, and other personal data if it meant that AI would have a better chance at curing diseases and solving other social and economic problems?

7.     Many economists believe that AI will eliminate millions of jobs over the next decade. If that happens, would you support a government program that taxes big technology companies and then uses the funds to provide every American with an income large enough to pay for basic necessities like housing, clothes, and food?
