What is the Bill of Rights?

first ten amendments to the Constitution that protect individual freedoms

powers given to Congress in Article I of the Constitution

twenty-seven amendments added to the Constitution over the years

document authored by Thomas Jefferson that details the rights of the citizens

The answer is A.

These are the rights that every citizen can expect to have. Any misuse of these amendments is a very serious offense. There are 27 amendments, but not all of them are above individual rights. Some have to do with voting rights. 13, 14 and 19. I am particularly fond of the 19th Amendment. That gives women the right to vote. It was about time.
