The U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land and cannot be violated.
This means that the rights given in the U.S. Constitution cannot be taken away by a state constitution.

Using the class set I am about to pass out to you as well as yesterday’s worksheets, you will copy Florida’s Preamble and then answer the questions that follow on Comparison Worksheet p.1, p.2, p.3, and p.4.
