Federalism

Agree

Yes, but limit the scope of the government’s powers

This answer aligns with federalism's emphasis on balancing power between the federal and state governments. By supporting the Patriot Act but limiting the scope of the government's powers, federalists can maintain national security while also protecting states' rights and individual liberties. This position reflects a compromise that many federalists may find appealing.

Agree

Yes, but the sections involving surveillance and criminalization are too broad

This answer acknowledges the concerns that some federalists may have about the broad scope of the Patriot Act's surveillance and criminalization provisions. By supporting the Patriot Act but calling for a narrower focus, federalists can balance national security with the protection of states' rights and individual liberties. This position may appeal to federalists who are concerned about the potential for federal overreach.

Disagree

No, and pass strict laws prohibiting government surveillance without probable cause and a warrant

While some federalists may agree with the sentiment of protecting individual liberties and limiting government surveillance, this answer goes beyond the scope of federalism's focus on balancing power between the federal and state governments. Federalists may not necessarily support strict laws prohibiting government surveillance without probable cause and a warrant, as this could be seen as an overreach of state power.
