Answer:

D. Freedom to petition the government

Step-by-step explanation:

The English Bill of Rights (1689) was a charter drafted by the Parliament and directed to the King and Queen of the time (William III and Mary II) that limited the powers of the King and Queen to the law, guaranteed people certain rights, such as freedom to petition the government and the right to be protected from unusual punishment and excessive bail, and gave more power to the Parliament in the reign's decisions, for example, under the charter, the members of the parliament had freedom of speech, and had the power to set aside laws, maintain an army in peacetime and collect taxes, which were tasks that the kings performed before.
