The Fourteenth Amendment makes it clear that the due process requirements in the Fifth Amendment apply to state as well as federal action. Section 1 states that: "No state shall make or enforce any law which abridges the priveleges or immunities of citizens of the US; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." When the Constitution was first adopted it was generally considered that it was a limitation on federal power, not states, because it set up the federal government.
The Fourteenth Amendments guarantees that citizens of each state cannot be deprived of life, liberty or property unless proper legal procedures are followed. This amendment compels the States to give their citizens due process. Prior to the Fourteenth Amendment, only the national government was required to extend due process to citizens as provided by the Fifth Amendment.
