   AI Overview   
   Yes, the U.S. Constitution applies to non-citizens—including legal   
   residents and undocumented immigrants—present within the United States   
   . Key protections, particularly the 5th and 14th Amendment's Due Process   
   Clauses, apply to "persons" not just citizens, ensuring rights to fair   
   treatment, free speech, and protection against unreasonable searches.

   BTW name the "illegal invaders" the US has had during it's history.
