Question

• They chose which rights would or would not be in the Bill of Rights.
• They were the ones who wrote the Bill of Rights.
• They provided the plan for fighting back when a civil liberty is violated.
• They refused to ratify the Constitution until the Bill of Rights was included in it.

Answer 1

The correct answer is: They refused to ratify the Constitution until the Bill of Rights was included in it.

Anti-Federalists were concerned that the new Constitution did not adequately protect individual rights and civil liberties, so their insistence on adding a Bill of Rights was crucial in ensuring these protections were included.
