Answer 1

The First Amendment's Establishment Clause protects against declaring a national religion.

Step-by-step explanation:

The First Amendment to the United States Constitution, specifically the First Amendment's Establishment Clause, protects against the declaration of a national religion. The Establishment Clause prohibits Congress from making laws respecting an establishment of religion, meaning that the government cannot establish or promote any particular religion as the country's official religion.
