The fifth amendment's equal-protection clause?
The Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution includes a due process clause that has been interpreted to provide a form of equal protection under the law, similar to the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. This means that the government cannot discriminate against individuals or groups in a way that violates their rights to fairness and legal equality. While the Fifth Amendment's protections primarily apply to federal actions, it has been used in landmark Supreme Court cases to address issues of discrimination and ensure that all individuals receive equal treatment under the law.

What clause in Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment was made inaffective?
The clause in Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment that was made ineffective is the "equal protection clause" as it pertains to the enforcement of its provisions against private individuals. In the Supreme Court case Civil Rights Cases (1883), the Court ruled that the federal government could not prohibit private acts of racial discrimination, thereby limiting the scope of the equal protection clause and its application primarily to state actions rather than private conduct. This decision significantly weakened the amendment's intended protections against discrimination.

The equal protection clause does not apply to private entities (hospitals, stores, restaurants, clubs, etc.), only the State.
