An amendment is a formal change or addition to the U.S. Constitution, requiring a rigorous process for ratification. The first ten amendments, known as the Bill of Rights, protect individual freedoms and were added in response to concerns about government power. Overall, the amendment process ensures the Constitution can adapt to the needs of society while maintaining its foundational principles.
