The 24th Amendment prohibited poll taxes or other taxes as qualifications for voting.

Poll taxes had been a way states had discriminated against black voters, by using their lower income status and poll taxes as a way to prevent them from going to the polls.  During the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s, this was challenged.  The 24th Amendment, ratified in 1964, said: "The right of citizens of the United States to vote in any primary or other election for President or Vice President for electors for President or Vice President, or for Senator or Representative in Congress, shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any State by reason of failure to pay any poll tax or other tax," and added:  "The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation."

Which of these is a procedural right protected by the Bill of Rights?
Natali [406]

<em><u>The right to call witnesses is a procedural right protected by the Bill of Rights. </u></em>

Further Explanations:

Bill of Rights establishes the “First Ten Amendments” of the Constitution and guarantees personal freedom and rights and at the same time limits the administrative jurisdiction over lawful and other legal disputes.  The 14th amendments of the Constitution include the citizenship clause, Equal Protection Clause, Due process Clause and immunities and Privileges Clause.  

Due process clause was introduced to bind all the federations to follow legal rights announced by the Federal government. It balances the influence of the law on individual and safeguards individuals from it. Sometimes the clause are also restricting legal proceeding, so to authorize Judges to define the fundamental justice, liberty, and fairness of the individuals. Its interpretation is also useful in the case of natural and procedural justice. The procedural right included in the bill of Rights authorizes a citizen to call the witness in the court and should also be made aware of the witness.

Why did Plato change his mind about becoming a politician?
andrew-mc [135]

Plato rejected Athenian democracy on the basis that such democracies were anarchic societies without internal unity, that they followed citizens' impulses rather than pursuing the common good, that democracies are unable to allow a sufficient number of their citizens to have their voices heard.
