DescriptionWASHINGTON (CNN) -- There's a standoff between Congress and President Bush over Iraq. Whose side are the people on?

By nearly two to one (59 percent to 33 percent in a recent Pew Research Center poll), Americans say they want their representative to vote for a bill setting a deadline for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq.

The Pew poll was conducted March 22-25 and had a margin of error of 3 percentage points.

Democratic leaders say they are listening. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, said, "We feel extremely comfortable because we're speaking for the American people, and you should understand what the American people are saying."
