Explanation:

The Establishment Clause of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibits the government from establishing an official religion, ensuring the separation of church and state. It does not prevent taxing religious institutions (though some are tax-exempt via other laws), does not restrict citizens' religious practice (that's the Free Exercise Clause), and does not bar laws protecting religious groups.

Answer:
