Border Security and the Rule of Law: Sovereignty, Safety, and Citizenship Quiz
Why is border security important to national sovereignty?
*
It allows a nation to know who is entering the country and enforce its laws
It eliminates the need for lawful immigration
It means states no longer have any role in public safety
It prevents citizens from asking questions about immigration policy
What is the difference between lawful immigration and illegal immigration?
*
There is no difference between the two
Lawful immigration only applies to tourists
Illegal immigration is the only form of immigration allowed by law
Lawful immigration follows the legal process, while illegal immigration violates immigration law
How does border security connect to election integrity?
*
It has no connection to citizenship or voting
It helps reinforce the principle that American elections should be decided by eligible U.S. citizens
It means noncitizens should vote in all federal elections
It eliminates the need for voter rolls
What does the rule of law mean?
*
Laws should only be enforced when politically convenient
Public officials can ignore laws they disagree with
Laws should be applied fairly, consistently, and predictably
Citizens should not be allowed to question government
Which statement is the most effective and respectful way to advocate on this issue?
*
“Lawful immigration and illegal immigration are the same thing.”
“Border security should focus on sovereignty, public safety, the rule of law, and protecting citizen-only voting.”
