The First Amendment (Amendment I) to the United States Constitution is
part of the Bill of Rights. The amendment prohibits the
making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, impeding
the free exercise of religion, abridging the freedom of speech,
infringing on the freedom of the press, interfering with the right to peaceably
assemble or prohibiting the petitioning for a governmental redress of
grievances.
This bill covers much more
