When the first Congress met in 1789, some representatives did not think adding a Bill of Rights to the Constitution was necessary. Suppose you are one of the representatives who support amending the Constitution to add a list of the people’s rights. In a short, three-paragraph essay, persuade your fellow representatives to approve the addition of the Bill of Rights. In your essay, include
• your reasons for wanting the Bill of Rights to be included.
• a brief scenario that (1) points out the importance of one of the amendments and (2) explains how it will affect people’s lives.
Make sure to convey your ideas clearly, using standard English.
