Which sentence in the US Constitution provides for limiting the power of government?
A “All persons born or naturalized in the United States . . . are citizens of the United States.”
B “The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived.”
C “The president shall be commander in chief of the army and navy.”
D “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion . . . or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press.”
E “The Constitution . . . shall be the supreme law of the land.”



Answer :

The correct answer is D.

A. refers to the Citizenship Clause, and does not refer to the power of government
B. does refer to the power fo goverment, but it does not provide for limiting it, quite the contrary.
C. again does no provide for limitations, but gives the President (part of the government) the power of commander in chief of the army
D. in fact does limit the power of the government, and in particular it limits the power of the government with respect to establishing (state) religion or limiting freedom of speech or of the press
E. refers to the Constitution and not the goverment

I believe the answer is: D. in fact does limit the power of the government, and in particular it limits the power of the government with respect to establishing (state) religion or limiting freedom of speech or of the press

Because of this law, the congress shall never be able to create regulation that prevent citizens of united states from publicly criticising their work results. This make congress unable to control the perception of the citizens and always held accountable for their works.
