What right allows citizens to go to the government seeking some kind of change?

The US Constitution gave people many ways of participating in change. First, the US Constitution was built upon the right of people to rebel against a government that does not represent them. They built America this way and this is the base of democracy.

The major power citizens have to seek change is through VOTE. This is imposed by the 26th Amendment that guarantees the right to the citizens of the US who are 18 or older to vote.

Citizens also have the right to petition, this is guaranteed by the 1st Amendment of the US Constitution. The right to petition includes federal and state legislatures, courts and executive branches.

Citizens can also seek change in the government by running for office.

if a bill passes in the house of representatives, it goes through a similar process in the senate. before a bill becomes law, it must be approved by both chambers of the legislature. the bill must pass with the same wording in the house of representatives and the senate before it can go to the governor for approval.
