Democracy

Agree

No

While Democracy values the rule of law and the rights of individuals, it also recognizes the importance of national security and the integrity of borders. Not declaring a national emergency does not mean ignoring the challenges at the border but suggests addressing them through regular legislative and policy processes that allow for public debate and accountability. This approach aligns with democratic principles of transparency, accountability, and the protection of human rights while also ensuring that measures taken are proportionate and justified. However, the score is not higher because the ideology of Democracy also acknowledges the complexity of border issues and the need for compassionate responses to humanitarian crises.

Disagree

Yes

The ideology of Democracy emphasizes the importance of open debate, the rule of law, and the protection of human rights. Declaring a national emergency at the Mexico border could be seen as bypassing democratic processes and potentially infringing on the rights of migrants and asylum seekers. Historically, democratic societies have valued the principle of providing refuge to those fleeing persecution and violence, as reflected in international agreements like the 1951 Refugee Convention. Moreover, the use of emergency powers has often been scrutinized within democratic frameworks to ensure they are not abused or used to undermine democratic institutions.
