Trust Recession

Congress sits at 9% trust and gets reelected at 90%+ anyway. Americans trust big business at 17%, but the shop down the street gets 67%. What's going on?This week, Michaela, David, and Adam dig into Bruce Mehlman's "trust recession" data with Lauren Colicelli (AVP, Strategic Political Engagement, American Council of Life Insurers; NABPAC Vice Chair) to figure out what it means for employee-funded and business trade association PAC programs. The throughline: trust collapses at a distance and holds up close, so the winning move isn't fixing Washington's numbers — it's closing the distance between your program and your people.
