When a nation forgets its history, it risks repeating its darkest mistakes. That is why Congressman Wesley Hunt has introduced legislation to establish a 28th Amendment, requiring every member of Congress to pass a basic civics exam before taking the oath of office. Those entrusted with representing the American... show more

@elonmusk I had another good idea for legislation. No foreigner should ever be allowed to hold office in any branch of government. It’s common sense

@elonmusk 💯💯
@TimRunsHisMouth The problem isn’t unfamiliarity with the Constitution but bad people in Congress.
This seems like common sense to me.
It sounds like you're putting the cart before the horse. What I am reading says that a newly elected official must take/pass a civics exam before they can take the oath of office. But, in the timeline of elections and representation, that is the wrong place to mandate a civics exam. After a person has been duly elected by their constituents, you cannot deny those constituents their representation because the elected official failed an exam. Mandating the exam must occur before the election, as a prerequisite to candidacy. Failing the civics exam bars them from running in the election. That is the only way it works. If you place it after the person is elected and before they take the oath, then you are violating and contradicting the will of the People should the elected person fail the test
No. Pass an Amendment making it illegal for anyone foreign born tto hold ANY LEVEL of public offfice in the USA
The fact that you need to pass a civics exam to become a citizen but not to be elected to public office says everything you need to know.
This is required to be citizen, why shouldn’t it be required for holding a government position? Make it so!
The exam does nothing. Hold them accountable for violating their Oath of Office, for EVERYTHING, and it will sort itself out quickly. These people already know they are violating their oath and breaking the law, because they know nothing ever happens but threats.
Performative bullshit. Take the money out to government and spare us the ethics
@elonmusk If you can't pass a civics test, you shouldn't be writing laws.
Performative. It needs to include only second generation native born for any elected or appointed office.
@elonmusk Uh oh - your dear leader will not pass that test. He will not be happy with you.
@elonmusk It should be more than a basic civics exam. If they’re going to represent all of us in this country, it should be a comprehensive test because they should know how it works. It should also be accompanied by an IQ test.
The Ammendment should be that no person shall be eligible to hold an Article I, II, or III position unless that person be: -A naturally born citizen of the United States of America -And have parents of at least 2 generations descent of 2 parents either naturalized, or natural born citizens. Meaning, you should not hold a federal public position unless you are at least 3rd generation American-born.
The reason legislators won't follow the Constitution is simply because there is no criminal penalty for not doing so.
Washington needs smart people, not woke activists.
@elonmusk Considering the persons who are to take this test, I believe it should be much more than just basic civics.
This is pointless. How about this; pass an amendment requiring that any lawmakers that propose or vote for a law must sign a disclosure statement similar to an S-1. They need to explain the law in plain English. Then they have to file periodic updates (10-Ks/10-Qs) on the effects of the law. And they would potentially be liable for material misstatements. I.e. hold politicians to the exact same standards to which public company officers are held.
@elonmusk That is exactly what the kids need to learn and know now. That is not too much to ask
You first? What are two rights of everyone living in the USA, regardless of our immigration status? 🇺🇸 📚freedom of expression 🗣️freedom of speech 👥freedom of assembly 🏛️freedom to petition the government 🕊️freedom of religion 🔫freedom to bear arms 📰freedom of the press Cf. @USCIS for correct answers:
@elonmusk Yes! How about a passing Polygraph too! 🙏🇺🇸
@elonmusk Elon reposting this is huge! Rep. Wesley Hunt’s 28th Amendment idea is spot on—Congress needs to pass a basic civics exam before oath. Knowledge of Constitution & history is essential. 🇺🇸 #28thAmendment #MAGA #AmericaFirst
@TimRunsHisMouth They need to take an oath to the Constitution as well and never hold duel citizenship. American only!!!!
@elonmusk We shouldn’t need a bill. Will they ask which party was in favor of keeping slavery? Not likely. Who will set the questions and answers?
Better idea… abolish all foreign born people from serving in our government.
100% Agree with you!
@elonmusk Power should be earned before it’s granted. If you can’t pass the test, you shouldn’t write the rules.
Brilliant idea. They should have to take a test on the Constitution as well.
Weak men argue. Strong men assess. Elite men punish with distance. Stop explaining yourself to people who don't respect you.
@elonmusk Trump is erasing history. So good luck taking any test from him.
@elonmusk This would increase the quality of our representatives
@elonmusk Make judges take it too
