Compare the language of the third amendment to similar Provisions in the Arizona state constitution provide two ways the language varies and what insights it provides.
The language of the third amendment of the United States Constitution states, "No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law." In comparison, the language in the Arizona state constitution, Article II, Section 1, states, "The rights of a person secured by this Constitution are not dependent upon the individual's immigration status." This variation in language highlights the different focus of each provision, with the third amendment addressing the quartering of soldiers and the Arizona state constitution addressing the rights of individuals regardless of their immigration status.
