Question

Here is your goal for this assignment:

Write a report summarizing the Department of Homeland Security

Because the Department of Homeland Security is such a new organization, its limits and powers have yet to be tested and fully defined. The scope of its power and influence can only be determined over time. All American citizens must ask themselves if this organization formed for their security has the potential to threaten their liberties. Each citizen has a responsibility to ensure that the government and its agencies operate within the limits of the Constitution, just as our forefathers intended. While one of the government's main roles is to protect its citizens, at the same time, the citizens of the United States must remain the guardians of their own freedoms.

Using at least three sources (magazines, the Internet, or other resources), research the Department of Homeland Security and its relationship with the Constitution. Use your information to write a 750-word report.

For your three main points:

Discuss the need for the Department of Homeland Security.
Discuss the importance of protecting individuals' Constitutional freedoms.
Discuss how the Department of Homeland Security can best do its job of protecting the American people without infringing the rights of the people. Where or how do we "draw the line" between security and rights?
Make sure to write your paper in the format your teacher requires (MLA, Chicago Manual of Style, APA, etc.), including the way you cite your sources. Before you submit your paper for grading, check for proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
