Why the Declaration of Independence is Important to Us

Key Philosophies in the Declaration of Independence People have “certain unalienable rights” (rights that cannot be taken away)-life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. (571)

People establish government to protect those rights.

Government derives power from the people.

People have a right and duty to change a government that violates their rights.

Ideas of John Locke People have natural rights to life, liberty, and property. Government is created to protect the rights of people and has only the limited and specific powers of the people consent to give it.
