The Fourteenth Amendment has been used to selectively incorporate the Bill of Rights to the states, most frequently via the Due Process Clause, although the Equal Protection Clause has also been used. An earlier Supreme Court decision prevented the Bill of Rights from being applied to the states via the Privileges and Immunities Clause.
