States are limited in their ability to infringe upon citizens' rights by the U.S. Constitution. The Bill of Rights specifically outlines individual liberties that states cannot violate, such as freedom of speech, religion, and the right to a fair trial. Additionally, the 14th Amendment ensures that states cannot deprive citizens of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. These limitations serve to protect citizens from potential abuses of power by state governments.
