Florida Civics Literacy (FCLE) Practice Exam

What is the first phrase of the US Constitution?

In God We Trust "We the People" Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness All men are created equal

Correct Answer:

"We the People"

Explanation:

The other options, A, C, and D, are all phrases that are commonly associated with the United States of America or American ideals, but they are not the first phrase of the US Constitution. Option A is the official motto of the United States, but it is not found in the Constitution. Option C is a phrase from the Declaration of Independence, not the Constitution. Option D is a phrase from the Declaration of Independence as well and is not part of the Constitution. Option B, "We the People," is the first phrase of the US Constitution and is a powerful statement that emphasizes the core principle of democracy and government by the people. This phrase is found in the Preamble of the Constitution, which outlines the purpose and principles of the document.
