Good question!
The First amendment says:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Now, as written, it prohibits CONGRESS from certain actions. To apply this against the states would have no effect unless that state had a ‘Congress;’ unless you changed the word ‘congress’ to mean ‘legislature.’
