The people were afraid that the strong new government would use its power to restrict individual freedom. Based on these fears, James Madison put forth twelve rights of the people. The Framers accepted ten of these, and these ten amendments clearly spelled out basic rights of US citizens. The First Amendment as example guaranteed freedom of speech, freedom of the press and freedom of religion. The first amendment also stated that the federal government could not establish any religions.
