Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The First Amendment states that “Congress shall not make law . . . Truncating the freedom of speech.” While it states “Congress,” the protections are also against state government and local public officials from making any law that truncates a person’s freedom of speech. However, just because the government cannot make a law of such does not mean that individuals are free to say anything that they want to.
