"A CNN/ORC poll released on August 2 shows that only 14% of Americans approve of recent Congressional behavior, and 84% disapprove. Only 2% are undecided. The poll includes an appendix that shows how the public responded to this same question, all the way back to April 1974. The current disapproval is the greatest in the history of the poll. The greatest approval for Congress was recorded in the period October 11-14, 2001, when 84% approved and only 10% disapproved. That was the month when anthrax was being mailed to various offices around the nation, including some Congressional offices. It was, of course, also the aftermath to the September 11, 2001 attacks."
