Question: 1 / 400

What does the 3rd amendment protect against?

Unreasonable tax rates

Quartering of Soldiers

The 3rd amendment states that Americans are protected from having to quarter or give shelter to soldiers in their own homes without their consent. This was a direct response to British colonists being forced to house British soldiers during the Revolutionary War. It does not protect against unreasonable tax rates, freedom of speech, or cruel and unusual punishment. While these are important rights protected by other amendments, they are not related to the 3rd amendment. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect.
