A recent survey from the Annenburg Public Policy Center shows that roughly one-third of adult Americans are unable to name the three branches of the federal government. 

The survey, released annually since 2014, asked nearly 1,600 adults in the United States questions about about basic civics, finding that despite adult knowledge being limited, there is strong public support for reforms, including those that affect the U.S. Supreme Court. 

The survey shows that roughly 50 percent of adults know which party has a majority control of the Senate andd the House of Representatives. Additionally, only 65 percent of U.S. adults were able to name each of the three branches of the government.
