Which of these is a right of everyone living in the United States, not only of citizens?

AThe right to run for Congress
BThe right to vote for President
CThe right to be a Senator
DThe right to bear arms
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. The right to bear arms
1. Rights of everyone living in the United States include freedom of expression, speech, assembly, worship, petitioning the government, and the right to bear arms. 2. The right to bear arms is on that list, so everyone living in the country holds it. 3. Running for Congress is running for federal office, which is a right only for citizens. 4. Voting for President is voting in a federal election, again a right only for citizens. 5. Becoming a Senator means holding federal office, so that option is citizen-only as well. 6. The question turns on the difference between rights for everyone and rights limited to citizens. _Source: USCIS Civics Flash Cards M-623 (rev. 02/12), public domain, official civics question 51_
