Civil+Rights


 * Civil Rights**

The Assertion Party believes in both liberal and conservative ideas in government. Our views on gay marriage, abortion, religion, women’s rights, general healthcare and voting rights are liberal. However, our view on immigration is conservative.

Immigration
 * Legal immigrants have to have visas and take tests and background checks in order to become a citizen. After 2 years of living the US, if they have not held a job for more than 6 months or have not been hired, they will be asked to leave.
 * Secure the borders, do not let anymore illegal-immigrants into our country.
 * Deny these immigrants jobs. They must return to their home countries.
 * People who are living in the US illegally are depriving legal citizens of jobs, and spending tax-payers money with the benefits of healthcare and welfare offered in the US.
 * If these immigrants commit felonies, they will be escorted out immediately, however if they do not commit crime or harm other citizens, they must provide proof of citizenship.
 * If immigrants were to leave the US, many problems that are present in the US today would diminish.

Gay Marriage
 * Gay Marriage should be legal in all states.

Abortion
 * We believe that is the women’s right and decision whether or not to get an abortion. The government should not make these decisions for them.

Women’s Rights
 * Job discrimination will not be tolerated; equal pay for equal work.
 * We believe domestic violence should have stiffer penalties and more legal convictions for perpetrators of this abuse.

Religion
 * We believe all government employees and citizens have the right to practice freedom of religion without discrimination.
 * We believe that religion is a private matter for each individual and should not interfere with government protocol.
