Citizenship Day (also known as Constitution Day) marks the anniversary of the ratification of the U.S. Constitution on September 17, 1787. It also recognizes all who have become a U.S. citizen whether by coming of age or by naturalization. Being an American citizen is almost like being a superhero. As a citizen of this great nation, you possess amazing rights and privileges. With those rights, comes responsibility. Why should citizens have responsibilities? Even laws and leaders may not be enough for everyone's rights to be upheld. If we want to protect our rights and welfare, then we, the people, have certain responsibilities to fulfill. These duties include: support and defend the Constitution, stay informed of the issues affecting your community, and abide by laws.
