  • A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Continuing Studies and of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in Partia
    POLITICIANS AND PETITIONS: PASSING THE “BILL FOR ESTABLISHING RELIGIOUS FREEDOM” IN VIRGINIA A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Liberal Studies By Eleesha Tucker, B.S. Georgetown University Washington, D.C. November 1, 2013 POLITICIANS AND PETITIONS: PASSING THE “BILL FOR ESTABLISHING RELIGIOUS FREEDOM” IN VIRGINIA Eleesha Tucker, B.S. MALS Mentor: James H. Hershman, Jr., Ph.D. ABSTRACT The defeat of Patrick Henry’s general assessment bill in the Virginia legislature, brought about by the mobilization of dissenters in a petition campaign influenced by James Madison, led to the passage of Thomas Jefferson’s “Bill for Establishing Religious Freedom” in 1786. Jefferson proposed his bill in 1779 as part of an effort to revise the Virginia legal code, seeking to bring state law into alignment with the newly inaugurated revolutionary government. But, the Assembly barely addressed the bill. The power of the established church was too strong and the members postponed the reading of the radical religion bill for a day when the legislative session had already closed. Early on, few religious dissenters lived in colonial Virginia, but the Great Awakening jolted the American colonies, swelling dissenting congregations. The Revolutionary War then ushered in change that emboldened dissenters to reject traditional deference to elites and solicit legal equality. As people across the socio- economic spectrum bore the hardships of the war and shouldered significant responsibility for the support of an infant government, many of the inferior sort thought of themselves as equal to the gentry and sought the legal protection of their right of conscience.
