Thanks to a scandal that has left veterans to die without care and the agency under investigation, the Department of Veterans Affairs is the federal government’s most hated agency.
The percentage of Americans with a favorable view of the VA rose from 57 percent to 68 percent from March 2010 to October 2013, according to Pew Research Center. Today, that percentage has plummeted to 39 percent. That’s the lowest of any federal agency, and marks the biggest decline from October 2013 to the present.
