Committee in 1955, he refused to answer the committee's questions about
his personal beliefs. He based his refusal on:

against yourself.

impartial jury.
C. the First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of speech.

search and seizure.

C. first Amendment

The First Ammendment, which guarantees a person the right to free speech.
