Analyze the Fourteenth Amendment
The Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution contains the Due Process Clause, which states: "...nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law."
Evaluate the given options
- "The right to move to a different country": Not protected or mentioned in the amendment.
- "Rights or property without due process": Directly matches the Due Process Clause protecting life, liberty (rights), or property from being taken without proper legal procedures.
- "Equal education": While the Equal Protection Clause was later used to desegregate schools, the amendment does not explicitly state that states cannot take away "equal education."
- "The right to own property": The amendment protects existing property from deprivation without due process, rather than guaranteeing a general right to acquire or own property.
