United States Constitution + Illinois Constitution: 2025

This 2025 edition brings together two cornerstone legal texts: the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Illinois. Compiled for reference, study, and civic education, this volume includes the full, unabridged text of both constitutions as currently amended. The U.S. Constitution, with its foundational Articles and 27 Amendments—including the Bill of Rights—remains the supreme law of the land, shaping the structure of federal government and guaranteeing fundamental liberties to American citizens. Complementing it is the Illinois Constitution, adopted in 1970 and regularly updated, which defines the organization, powers, and responsibilities of state and local government. It addresses critical topics such as individual rights, education, the environment, elections, taxation, and judicial structure within Illinois. This edition is ideal for students, educators, legal professionals, and all those interested in American and state constitutional law. View Less
