Daily Talker: Civics Test Requirement
Arizona became the first state in the nation to pass a law requiring high school students to pass the U.S. citizenship test.
The American Civics Act will require students to pass 60 of the 100 questions on the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization civics test, and they can retake the test until they pass, starting in eighth grade. The requirement will start for the class of 2017, today's high school sophomores.
Other states are likely to follow later this year.
What do you think of making high school students pass a U.S. citizenship test in order to graduate?
