Answer:

b.Thomas Jefferson

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson believed that everyone should have religious freedom and that church and state should not be mixed, at first Virginians that weren´t anglicans were fined and put into jail, this led to a lot of baptists locked behind the bars, Jefferson noticed that and in the Virginia Bill he took the first step towards religious freedom, by exempting baptists from paying taxes and fines to support Anglican church and clergy.
