More than half of Republican likely voters, but only about a quarter of Democrats, say it’s “time for America to get back to work,” results of a new national survey released Thursday by Rasmussen Reports reveals.

Nationally, about half (49%) are not ready for the country to return to work, while 36% say it’s time.

Also on Thursday, President Donald Trump provided the nation’s governors with a three-phase roadmap for reopening their states, the Associated Press reports. “You’re going to call your own shots,” Trump told the governors, admitting that it will take much longer for the country to return to normalcy than he had initially expected.

While 51% of Republicans say it’s time to return to work, 56% of Democrats say it’s not, the survey of 1,000 U.S. likely voters, conducted April 14-15, 2020 finds.

This difference between Republican and Democrat voters is also reflected in their opinions of how much longer the country can survive with the economy shut down. While 37% of Republicans say the economy must get going by May 1, just 14% of Democrats agree.

Conversely, 39% of Democrats say the U.S. can afford to remain in shutdown for “As long as government officials say is necessary,” compared to 28% of Republicans and 33% of all voters.

The youngest voters and those with the lowest income are the most likely to want to return to work. Here, 44% of those 18-39 years old say it’s time to get going again, compared to 32% of those either 40-64 or 65 and older. Only 22% of those with annual incomes over $200,000 say the country should get back to work, while 34-35% of those in the middle-income categories agree.

Entrepreneurs (47%) are more confident that the U.S. is ready to get back to business than are those who work for government (38%), the private-sector (33%) or are retired (37%).
