We the People
Constitution Preamble
Goals and Purposes of the Government
The United States Constitution has a Preamble that breaks down the goals and purposes of the government. In this flyer, we will give current examples for each goal.
Establish Justice
In America we send people who commit crimes to prisons to keep the streets safe. Also, we have fair trials in court to find out if someone is guilty or not.
Domestic Tranquility
The people in America keep their communities peaceful by doing community services and making sure the neighborhoods are safe.
Provide for the common defense
Our president and congress send military forces to places that are possible threats to our safety.
Promote the general welfare
Our government provides section 8 for people who need help paying for their cost of living. Also, the government passed Obamacare to provide healthcare for people in need.
Secure the blessings of liberty
The Bill of Rights and the Constitution give us our rights and freedoms.
