The Framers of the Constitution guaranteed freedom of speech and expression to the citizens of the United States with the First Amendment, which reads, in part, Congress shall make no law â¦ abridging the freedom of speech..
The first amendment was never intended to provide some all-encompassing right to each citizen to say anything they want, to anyone they want, whenever they want. Freedom of speech was simply a protection against government censorship of speech or publications that criticized government policy or action.
