USCIS has released a new version of the naturalization civics test. There are 128 questions total, of which 20 will be asked. Candidates must answer 12 of these 20 correctly. https://www.uscis.gov/citizenship-resource-center/the-2020-version-of-the-civics-test/128-civics-questions-and-answers-2020-version
Here is a test question whose "correct" answer changed from past test (1st image) to new one (2nd image). And another similar q added about House (3rd).

That is, in official naturalization civics test question about whom US senators/representatives represent, Trump admin changed the correct answer from “all people” to just “citizens."
Con law profs out there -- how would you evaluate this answer if given on homework?

Also lol to the addition of this new question. Should be a disclaimer that it doesn't apply to POTUS
More allowable answers to revised question about why colonists fought British/declared independence from Britain. Old question/answers on left, new on right
Sorry Poor Richard, your almanac is no longer an acceptable answer for q about why Benjamin Franklin is famous. Inventions now matter though! (some other changes too - old q on left, new on right)
Hamilton has also been upgraded -- gets his own question on the citizenship test now! In old test he just came up as 1 of 4 possible answers to question about Federalist Papers authorship #nonstop
Two new questions about when men and women got right to vote
(civil rights historians might dispute these answers...)

Reframing of question (now questions plural) about the Cold War -- what were we concerned about, and who was our rival. Old test question on left, new test questions on right.
Another new question, about examples of U.S. innovation. IMHO Broadway musical, jazz, other cultural contributions should be allowable answers on this list

And, in keeping with the many new questions about U.S. military history, two other new questions about purpose of Memorial Day and Veterans Day
