The constitution was the most important document ever written in The United States history. The Constitution was signed on September 17, 1787, and was written during the Constitutional Convention. That was 228 years ago that this document was written, but yet we still follow this document.

This amendment is used a lot in court, when states have their individual issues, they take care of them in their own states because of this amendment, it lets them be able to make their own decisions, and have the right to be able to do what they want, not want the government
