In the year 2026, as the United States of America prepares to celebrate 250 years since its founding, we have engaged an expert consortium of legal scholars, public servants, activists, and entrepreneurs for a broad discussion about how they might expand upon the Bill of Rights, that foundational document of our Constitution. The original Bill of Rights was signed and ratified by 39 founding fathers in 1791, the result of more than two years of negotiation and deliberation. Over the course of several months in 2025, we asked these 11 individuals to present their own ideas on how to build upon the Bill of Rights, cementing its original principles and adding their bold vision for the future.
Inspired by the visions put forward in A Bill of Rights for Our Future, we invite you to contribute your own idea for a new or expanded right.
If you could add one right for our future, what would it be?
