Hello!

The The Fourteenth Amendment gave the national government the power to prevent states from violating the rights of their citizens, granted the freed slaves citizenship, and gave the federal courts the power to oversee state legislation

Good Morning!

The Fourteenth Amendment guarantees Americans the supra-statute of their rights. It guarantees equal protection of all citizens, opening up to legal equality. Hugs!
