In the United States, the Ninth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protects against federal infringement of unenumerated rights. The text reads:
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
The Supreme Court of the United States has also interpreted the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution to protect against state infringement of certain unenumerated rights including, among others, the right to send one's children to private school and the right to marital privacy.
The Supreme Court has found[citation needed] that unenumerated rights include such important rights as the right to travel, the right to vote, and the right to keep personal matters private.[20]
State constitutions have also been interpreted to protect unenumerated rights. Sometimes this has been done via provisions with similar language to the Ninth Amendment (often called "Baby Ninth Amendments")[21] and sometimes with provisions with similar language to the Fifth Amendment's and Fourteenth Amendment's due process of law clauses. Unenumerated rights that state courts have found to be protected by these types of provisions are as varied and have included the right to earn a living, the right to establish a home, and the right to refuse medical treatment.[22]
Shit, when did they slip this one in there? LOL #9thAmendment
