First Amendment Part 2 by Anthony

The First Amendment part 2 says "Congress shall make no law abridging (taking away) the freedom of speech, or of the press."

In my own words it says that the Congress cannot make a law taking away an American's freedom of speech.

The Importance of the Bill of Rights:  The Bill of Rights and the First Amendment are important now because it is the freedom of speech, freedom of religion and freedom of press that you need to do what you want. Also the right to let people know important stuff. Last, if we did not have the amendments it would had been a lot of trouble publishing newspapers and without the newspapers people would not know what is happening in the world.

The Creation of the Bill of Rights: In Philadelphia in 1788, the Founding Fathers were trying to pass the Constitution. Two groups formed to debate the Consti tution, the Federalists and the Anti-Federalists. The Anti-Federalists proposed a Bill of Rights. Then Federalists and the Anti-Federalists passed the Constitution. Also they added a Bill of Rights to the Constitution.
