Answer:
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.
Step-by-step explanation:
Unlike the largely negative liberties added to the U.S. Constitution in Bill of Rights ("Congress shall make no law..."), the Texas Constitution asserts the rights of citizens at the outset in Article 1. With its more positive tone the Texas Bill of Rights provides much the same protections as the U.S. Bill of Rights.
