Gallup Finds More U.S. Workers Struggling Than Thriving for First Time

Gallup says 49% of U.S. workers report struggling in life, while 46% say they are thriving, reversing the pattern seen in 2022 and 2023.

Fact Check
The claim accurately cites specific statistics (49% struggling, 46% thriving) from a Gallup poll released in March 2026. Multiple authoritative news sources, including UPI and Fox Business, as well as Gallup's own website, confirm these figures and the fact that this is the first time 'struggling' has exceeded 'thriving' since the metric was established in 2009. The reversal of the 2022-2023 trend is also explicitly mentioned in the reporting.
