Which two rights are specifically mentioned in the Declaration of Independence?

The Declaration of Independence specifically highlights "Life" and "Liberty" as two fundamental rights that are inalienable and thus cannot be surrendered or transferred. These concepts are central to the document's assertion of individual rights and freedom from oppression. The Declaration states that all men are created equal and endowed with certain unalienable rights, among which the rights to life and liberty are paramount.

In contrast, while "Happiness" is referenced in conjunction with the pursuit of happiness in the famous phrase “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,” it is not designated as an explicit right in the same manner as life and liberty. Therefore, although happiness is significant, it serves a different role within the principles outlined in the Declaration. The other terms like "Security," "Freedom," and "Equality" are important in the broader context of American rights and values but do not hold the same specific mention in the Declaration of Independence.
