Read the excerpt from the Preamble. How are the goals of the Constitution still relevant today?



Lawmakers ignore the Constitution, it is not relevant today.

Lawmakers use the Constitution to pass laws that help society run smoothly.

The Preamble is sung at the beginning of every sporting event.

The Preamble does not establish goals for society.
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

- The Constitution

Tranquility means “peace.”

Posterity means “future generations.”
