Should immigrants be required to pass a citizenship test to demonstrate a basic understanding of our country’s language, history, and government?

The American Civics test is an examination that all immigrants must pass to gain U.S. citizenship. The test asks 10 randomly selected questions which cover U.S. history, the constitution and government. In 2015 Arizona became the first state to require High School students to pass the test before they graduate.

Most citizens would not be able to pass the citizenship test however allowing just anyone into the country would be an intelligent decision.

Yes, but immigrants should be provided two or more free online or in-person classes concerning the subject.

Yes, and Native Citizens should be required to pass it as well

Yes, but it shouldn't bar them from entering, it should only result in mandatory courses on the topics to ensure proper knowledge.
