Drafted a year after the Declaration of Independence

Drafted a year after the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson’s Statute for Religious Freedom was enacted by Virginia’s General Assembly on January 16, 1786.

The act was so important to Jefferson that he listed it among his lifetime achievements and had it placed on his tombstone before he died.
