Answers from the USCIS list
Give 2 of these answers.

- freedom to petition the government
- freedom of religion
- the right to bear arms
Our explanation
These rights belong to everyone living in the U.S., not only citizens. Many come from the First Amendment: speech, religion, assembly (gathering), and petition (writing to the government). The right to bear arms (have weapons) is another.
