The Bill of Rights - Ninth Amendment

In honor of the 230th anniversary of the ratification of the Bill of Rights and week 9: the Ninth Amendment.

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."

The second-to-last amendment in the Bill of Rights explicitly establishes that, even if a right is not enumerated in the Constitution, that fact cannot be used to deny those rights to the people.
