In celebration of the dedication
In celebration of the dedication of the #FirstAmendment tablet at the National Constitution Center, President and CEO Jeffrey Rosen discusses how the First Amendment’s protection of the freedom of conscience shows us the connection between the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. Rosen explores Thomas Jefferson’s Bill for Establishing Religious Freedom in Virginia, drafted in 1777, and Justice Brandeis’s opinion in Whitney v. California, drafted in 192. He notes, “Only by listening to the best arguments on all sides of the constitutional questions at the center of American life can all of us exercise our right and duty to make up our own minds.”
