The basis of all laws in the United States are the Declaration of Independence, and the U.S. Constitution (limits on the federal government and rights of the states and largely the individual people).

Finally the Statute Laws (or Statutory Laws are the books of every law, regulation, and code written by the United States Legislature), are the laws that guide the United States each day. Important note: these laws may not be Constitutional and can be reversed or repealed, but only if brought to the U.S. Supreme Court. (The U.S. Supreme Court has NO RIGHT to decide on the Constitutionality until it is brought before them in a case.)
