美國憲法序言(英語:Preamble to the United States Constitution)是對美國憲法的立法目標進行介紹的一段非常簡短的弁言,作者為古弗尼爾·莫里斯,全文只有一句話。美國的法院將這句話視為美國開國元勛最初制訂憲法的根本宗旨和指導原則。
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence,[note 1] promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
聯邦憲法的序言只是作為對憲法立法目標的一個介紹,並沒有直接賦予美國聯邦政府任何權力[3],而且也沒有對任何政府行為加以具體的限制。由於序言的這種單純和局限性,除非是一些毫無意義的訴訟[4],否則沒有任何一個法院會將其作為一個判決的決定性依據[5]。
