These cases overturned convictions in which confessions were made by the accused before that person had access to an attorney and before the accused was told that he or she had the right to remain silent.

Page 44: Splash Screen Contents Chapter Focus Section 1Section 1A Nation of Immigrants Section 2Section 2The Basis of Citizenship Section 3Section 3The Rights.

3. Predicting Consequences Use a graphic organizer like the one below to show what might happen if there were no formal procedures for becoming an American citizen.

Critical Thinking

Effect: The country would be flooded with immigrants and refugees who could not participate in government.
