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.

No, immigrants came there to live a new and free life. If they moved there it is their job to do research on what they are moving into. If there is a sense of danger, then there should be a simple and easy test that is common knowledge to the newer immigrants. However, this test still allows them to enter their now lived in country.
@9ZSZWGQ3mos3MO
Yes, and people who have non-LatAm, non-Mediterranean heritage should not be allowed to become citizens. Mexico for Mexicans and Latinos
@9KC6JTV12mos12MO
Most citizens would not be able to pass the citizenship test however allowing just anyone into the country would be an intelligent decision.
@9HMFXLW1yr1Y
Yes, but immigrants should be provided two or more free online or in-person classes concerning the subject.
@99PVMSL2yrs2Y
Yes, and Native Citizens should be required to pass it as well
@99BGD5W2yrs2Y
Yes, but it shouldn't bar them from entering, it should only result in mandatory courses on the topics to ensure proper knowledge.
