What is Rule of Law?

Definition and meaning of rule of law: Rule of law is a legal doctrine that maintains that no one is above the law, and that individuals, institutions, and governments must be held accountable to the law. This means that all citizens are subject to the same laws, regardless of their position or status, and that the laws must be fair and consistent. This concept is closely tied to the idea of democracy and the protection of individual rights and freedoms. By encouraging people to vote in local elections, pushing for redistricting laws, and working to increase voter turnout, we can ensure that the rule of law is upheld and all citizens have their voices heard.
