Which rights are guaranteed by the 14th Amendment? Choose three correct answers.

Answer
A
All people born in the US are citizens.
B
All people naturalized in the US are citizens.
C
States can decide what rights citizens have.
D
States cannot make laws that take away rights protected by the Constitution.
E
States can deny citizens equal protection of the law.

Explanation

The 14th Amendment grants citizenship to people born in the United States and to people naturalized there, so A and B are correct. It also bars states from making or enforcing laws that abridge citizens’ privileges or immunities and guarantees equal protection of the laws. Therefore, D is correct; states cannot deny equal protection, so E is incorrect.
