To determine which argument a supporter of the Arizona immigration law would use to show its necessity, let's break down the options provided and evaluate each one:
A) All citizens are entitled to due process of law under the Fifth Amendment.
This argument is not directly related to the necessity of the immigration law. While it acknowledges the rights of citizens under the Fifth Amendment, it does not address the specific reasons for enforcing this law.
B) Birthright citizenship was granted in the United States only with the Fourteenth Amendment.
This argument also does not directly support the necessity of the immigration law. It focuses on birthright citizenship, a separate concept from the enforcement of immigration laws.
C) The First Amendment permits freedom of assembly by all people, including immigrants.
Though the First Amendment protects freedom of assembly for all individuals in the United States, it is not directly related to the necessity of the immigration law. This argument emphasizes a different aspect of constitutional rights and does not provide a clear rationale for the enforcement of this law.
D) The U.S. Constitution gives states the right to make and enforce their own laws.
This argument aligns more closely with the necessity of the Arizona immigration law. It suggests that states have the constitutional authority to create and enforce their laws, including those related to immigration.
Based on the evaluation of each argument, option D seems to be the most supportive of the necessity of the Arizona immigration law. Therefore, the correct answer is D) The U.S. Constitution gives states the right to make and enforce their own laws.
