29: People's Rights
Reclaim the rights of the people that have been ignored or violated by government. Other Information:
The Ninth Amendment: Affirming the People’s Rights -- This speaks most eloquently for itself: “The enumeration in the Constitution
of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.” This provision codifies the
concept that our government derives its power from the people and all powers not delegated to the government are retained
by the people. This is an essential feature of our governmental system, and we therefore celebrate the grassroots rediscovery
of this and other constitutional guarantees over the last four years and welcome to our ranks all our fellow citizens who
are determined to reclaim the rights of the people that have been ignored or violated by government.
