flag A new Gallup poll shows most Americans support U.S. UN membership despite skepticism over its effectiveness.

flag A new Gallup poll from September 2025 finds that 60% of Americans believe the United Nations is necessary, though 63% think it is ineffective in addressing global challenges. flag Despite skepticism, 79% support U.S. membership in the UN, with only 17% favoring withdrawal—the highest level in decades. flag Views vary sharply by party: 59% of Republicans view the UN as unnecessary, compared to 19% of Democrats, and 63% of Republicans want reduced U.S. funding, up from 46% in 2003. flag While most Americans support continued U.S. involvement, only 32% believe the UN is effectively addressing global issues. flag The results reflect ongoing debate over America’s role in international institutions, influenced by past actions under President Trump, including withdrawals from the UN Human Rights Council and UNESCO, and funding cuts to UNRWA. flag The U.S. remains the largest contributor, funding 22% of the UN’s regular budget.
