To the editor: So the commander in chief needs to make the civics take a look at tougher (“Trump administration strikes to make U.S. citizenship tougher with revised civics take a look at,” Sept. 18). That’s nice. I’m certain that the individuals vying for a spot in our nice nation will truly learn the necessities, research for the take a look at and do effectively. They may do that as a result of they got here to this nation to share within the freedoms and duties written within the Structure. They care about changing into residents.
However I’m not so certain about President Trump or his administration. They appear to treat the Structure, and congressionally accepted legal guidelines, merely as inconvenient pointers. Put strain on organizations over their workers exercising their free speech rights? That’s OK. Ignore the separation of church and state? Straightforward. Who cares?
Subsequently, I suggest that Trump and his cronies must be required to take the brand new civics take a look at themselves. In the event that they fail, I consider they need to be booted from the White Home till they study what America and People stand for and consider in.
