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]
