Answer 1

The statement that best reflects the rights of citizens protected by the Bill of Rights is:

Every citizen has the right to practice any religion of their choosing without the fear of government interference.

This reflects the First Amendment, which guarantees the freedoms of religion, speech, press, assembly, and the right to petition the government.

The other options, while they may relate to rights or entitlements, do not specifically represent protections outlined in the Bill of Rights. The right to vote is protected by later amendments, quality healthcare is not a guaranteed right in the Constitution, and the right to refuse a search is more nuanced and typically requires probable cause and a warrant, as outlined in the Fourth Amendment.
