Answer:

While the earlier decision had focused primarily on claims of freedom of religion protections in the U.S. Constitution's First Amendment, the Barnette ruling invoked both freedom of religion and an individual's freedom of speech—and that freedom of speech included the right not to be forced to speak against one's will.

In West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette (1943), the Supreme Court ruled that B. children cannot be required to salute the flag if it violates their religious faith.

The case was instituted when two Jehovah's Witnesses students from Pennsylvania were expelled because of their refusal to salute the flag.

The ruling of the court was that the salutation of the flag requires an affirmation of a belief.

The Supreme Court invalidated a compulsory flag salute stating that students should be allowed to benefit from their First Amendment rights.

Since the Pledge was an agreement to a belief, compelling the students to utter the pledge and the salutation was a breach of their freedom of religion and beliefs.
