Ipsos LGBT+ Pride 2026 Global Survey (United States sample) · Apr 24, 2026 – May 8, 2026 · US national
Verification note. Wording and US country-row agree/disagree percentages read directly from the Ipsos LGBT+ Pride 2026 report PDF by locating the United States row and matching each cell to its column header by x-coordinate. US sample size of ~1,000 is inferred from Ipsos's standard country allocation, which the 2023 and 2025 methodology pages state explicitly; the 2026 PDF's methodology page was not separately confirmed.
