Section 9 is specific to Congress

Where does it say that?

It doesn't need to, as the context makes it obvious, to anyone but a nitpicker.

"It doesn't need to ..."

Ah, but it needed to in Article I, Section 8 though.

It's good that you're finally seeing that context has a role to play in this discussion. The explicitly stated context of the Bill of Rights (as explained in the Preamble thereto) makes it obvious to anyone who knows how to read, that it's specific to the federal government.
