When you say "additional" do you mean in addition to those set out in the United States's Declaration of Independence? If so, I would say that we do not. The reason for this is the three that are mentioned in the Declaration are so broad as to encompass any right you can imagine.
In the Declaration, we are said to have the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The last two of these can include anything. For example, people have the right to marry more or less whoever they would like to (as long as they are opposite sex). This is a right that was not present in many US states when my parents got married in 1964. But the right to marry can easily be put under either or both of the last two categories of rights mentioned in the Declaration. In fact, I cannot think of any right that you can imagine that does not fall under one of those categories.
