    The 5th Amendment matters today because it protects us from having our rights abused by the government. The 5th Amendment says that we cannot have our life or property taken except by due process of law. The 5th Amendment matters today so that the government can't just punish us if it wants to.

    Do you remember the saying "I plead the fifth!"? This means that you cannot be charged for the same crime twice, also known as double jeopardy. This is important because it would be unfair to charged double for the same thing you were charged with last time
