Sources

Verification note. WORDING RECOVERY SWEEP. Stem, rotation instruction, response set and topline copied from PPIC's own published questionnaire block (questions 67-68) and confirmed against the April 2025 all-adults crosstab PDF, which prints the same item text above the banner. NOTE ON DATE: PPIC states the survey was fielded March 27 - April 4, 2025; this record's field_start is left at the database's existing 2025-03-01 so the merge updates rather than duplicates.

Wording notes: restrictive policy is the 'support' pole | asked in rotation with an item on closing the US Department of Education, both framed as Trump executive-order policies in PPIC's narrative

neutral — the policy is stated in one sentence with both halves of the contrast named; the four-point scale is symmetric
