When states set up their own constitutions (a written set of rules that guides how a country, state, or other political organization works) many included a bill of rights. What is a bill of rights?
A bill of rights refers to a list of fundamental rights and freedoms that are granted to the citizens by the government. It is a set of protections and guarantees that are enshrined in a country's constitution or legal framework. A bill of rights typically includes rights such as freedom of speech, religion, and assembly, as well as protections against infringements on individual liberties, such as unreasonable searches and seizures, and cruel and unusual punishment. Its purpose is to ensure that individuals have inherent rights that cannot be violated by the government or other entities.
