Why are state constitutions more likely to address specific issues than the U.S.Constitution? Is the bill of rights for most states similar to or different from the Bill of Rights in the U.S. Constitution?

What will be an ideal response?


State constitutions are more likely to address specific issues because it is generally easier to amend a state constitution than it is to amend the U.S. Constitution. The bill of rights for most states is almost identical to the Bill of Rights of the U.S. Constitution.
