Which amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the right to freedom of speech?

First Amendment.
Second Amendment.
Fourth Amendment.
Eighth Amendment.

The correct answer is: First Amendment.

The First Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the right to freedom of speech. This amendment protects individuals from government censorship and allows for the exchange of ideas and beliefs without fear of retaliation. The other options, Second, Fourth, and Eighth Amendments, do not pertain to freedom of speech and instead cover topics such as the right to bear arms, protection against unreasonable searches and seizures, and protection against cruel and unusual punishment. Therefore, they are incorrect options for this question.
