Which statement about Wyoming's religious liberty provisions is accurate?

• A. Religious tests are required to vote or hold public office.
• B. The exercise of religious faith may be interfered with by the government.
• C. No religious test shall ever be applied to voting or holding office; the exercise of any religious faith shall not be interfered with; no public money shall be appropriated for any society or institution under religious control.
• D. The state must fund religious organizations.

Answer: (C)

Wyoming protects religious liberty through several clear protections that work together. First, no religious test can be required to vote or hold public office, so eligibility isn’t tied to a person’s faith. Second, the government cannot interfere with the free exercise of religion, meaning individuals can practice their beliefs without government meddling. Third, public funds cannot be used to support religious societies or institutions, preserving a separation between church and state. The statement that combines these protections—no religious test for voting or office, free exercise cannot be interfered with, and no public money for religious institutions—best reflects Wyoming’s approach to religious liberty.
