The Fourteenth Amendment guarantees equal protection under the law and due process of law to all persons, and applies to actions taken by state and local governments. Fourteenth Amendment claims may arise in various contexts, such as when an individual is discriminated against on the basis of race, gender, national origin, or other protected categories, when an individual is deprived of their liberty or property without due process of law, or when an individual is denied equal protection of the law.
