Bill of Rights socialism

Gus Hall, who first coined the term (1984)

Bill of Rights socialism is an ideology based on the interpretation that the United States Bill of Rights advocated for a socialist society or that if need be, a new United States Bill of Rights that explicitly advocated for it should be made. The concept was first coined by Gus Hall, General Secretary of Communist Party USA.[1] Communist Party USA has advocated for amending the United States Constitution to include the right to join a union, the right to a fair-paying job and others.[2]

Bill of Rights socialism has also been advocated by the Democratic Socialists of America since 2012.[3]
