Question

What is the practical effect of the First Amendment in US society and governance today?

Answer 1

The First Amendment protects you freedom of speech, religion, and peaceful assembly, and more like this. The best answer from these option seems to be C. It prohibits both the federal government and state governments from passing laws that abridge the freedom of speech.  No one in the U.S has the right to revoke your freedom of speech.

I hope this helps! :)
