The Bill of Rights Overview

The Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments added to the Constitution shortly after it was ratified, exists specifically because the ratification debate made clear an explicit, written list of individual protections would help secure lasting support for the Constitution, rather than leaving government to respect unstated rights on trust alone. Beyond simply naming protected freedoms, each amendment works as a specific limit on one kind of government power, for example the First Amendment limits the government's power over speech and religion, while the Fourth Amendment limits its power to search someone's property without cause.
