Privileges and Immunities

The Privileges and Immunities Clause is part of the U.S. Constitution that ensures citizens from one state are treated fairly when they visit or live in another state. It prevents states from discriminating against citizens of other states, protecting fundamental rights such as the ability to work, own property, and access courts. This clause promotes equality among citizens and maintains a sense of unity across the states, ensuring that everyone can enjoy basic rights and freedoms regardless of their state of residence.
