Question: 1 / 400

Which amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the right to freedom of speech?

First Amendment.

The First Amendment is the correct answer because it explicitly states that "Congress shall make no law...abridging the freedom of speech." The Second, Fourth, and Eighth Amendments do not mention or pertain to freedom of speech. Option B, the Second Amendment, guarantees the right to bear arms. Option C, the Fourth Amendment, protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. Option D, the Eighth Amendment, protects against cruel and unusual punishment. Therefore, none of these options guarantee the right to freedom of speech.
