What document protects the unalienable rights?

The phrase "certain unalienable rights" is not in the U.S. Constitution at all, and so they are not guaranteed. The phrase appears in the Declaration of Independence, at the beginning of the second paragraph: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." Since the Declaration of Independence did only what its title says, declare independence from Britain, and listed the reasons for it, it has no force at law.


Is a right found in the declaration of independence?

The Declaration of Independence does not explicitly list rights but asserts the inherent rights of individuals, most famously encapsulated in the phrase "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." These are presented as fundamental rights that governments are created to protect. The document emphasizes that individuals have the right to alter or abolish a government that fails to secure these rights. Thus, while specific rights are not enumerated, the Declaration underscores the concept of natural rights that are essential to human dignity and freedom.
