Over the past two years, the United States has experienced an increase in crime, particularly violent crime. This research project by the Center for American Progress Action Fund summarizes a body of polling and qualitative research conducted from April to August 2022. The research explores voters’ attitudes to provide Democrats with clear guidance on how to better communicate on the issue.

The positions of American Progress, and our policy experts, are independent, and the findings and conclusions presented are those of American Progress alone. A full list of supporters is available here. American Progress would like to acknowledge the many generous supporters who make our work possible.
