In August 1789, the National Assembly took

steps to change France. One new law ended all
the special privileges that members of the First
and Second Estates had enjoyed. Another law
gave all French men equal rights. Though women
did not get these rights, it was a bold step. Other
laws cut the power of the Catholic Church. The
government took over church lands, hoping to
sell them and raise money.
1. What are three examples of new laws passed
by the National Assembly in August 1789?

Pleaseee help
