Answer:

The correct answer is A. The law enacted to force Mormons to end their political efforts was the Edmunds-Tucker Act.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Edmunds-Tucker Act, passed in 1887, disintegrated both the Mormon Church and the Perpetual Emigration Fund, claiming that the church practiced polygamy. The law prohibited the practice of polygamy and punished with a $ 500 to $ 800 fine and imprisonment of up to five years. It dissolved the church corporation and confiscated all of its properties, claiming that the church had a $ 50,000 fine. It was finally repealed in 1978.
