Amendment that protects freedom of religion speech and the press?

The first amendment states "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."The First Amendment is what protects your freedom of speech religion and the press, by saying that no law can be passed to abridge those rights.The ninth amendment states "The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people." which means that an amendment or law written at the time of the issuance of the Constitution or later cannot remove the rights given to the people by there creator.Simply put the U.S. Constitution is a document that limits the powers of the Federal Government over the States and the People of the United States.The Tenth Amendment: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."The Short answer is the First Amendment, but in truth all of the Bill of Rights first ten amendments protect freedom of Religion and all other rights of the people.
