Answer:

The U.S. Bill of Rights covers freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and petition in one amendment; The Texas Bill of Rights uses nine separate sections to address the same freedoms. There are some notable differences between the two bills of rights beyond the order of appearance of familiar civil liberties and protections. Notably, the Texas Bill of Rights has a declaratory tone, justifying the specific protections set forth with a number of sweeping generalizations aimed at the perceived political dangers of the time.
