The U.S. Constitution does not specifically list a right to privacy, whereas Massachusetts' Declaration of Rights explicitly includes a right to privacy. Additionally, Massachusetts' Declaration of Rights includes the right to change or reform the government, which is not explicitly stated in the U.S. Constitution. Another difference is that Massachusetts' Declaration of Rights comes before the Preamble, while the U.S. Bill of Rights is attached as the first 10 amendments to the U.S. Constitution. Overall, these differences highlight variations in the specific rights guaranteed to individuals in Massachusetts compared to the broader protections provided by the U.S. Constitution.
