The First Amendment protects people's right to free speech, meaning they may not be stopped from criticizing the government. It also protects the right of people to peaceably assemble, meaning that people can get together to protest actions of the government as long as they do so peaceably. Lastly it protects the right of the people to petition the government for redress of grievances, meaning that Congress cannot shut anyone out of at least raising complaints about issues. In sum, it asssures that the government does not get complete control of how the government runs the way a monarchy, like Great Britain was able to do.
