throughout the 1970s and 80s, the \moral majority\ played a very influential role in u.s. politics. which of these measures did the group campaign for?
a passage of \affirmative action\ legislation
b a nation - wide ban on abortion and homosexuality
c term limits for u.s. senators and representatives
d a reduction in censorship of american media and entertainment
The Moral Majority was a conservative Christian political organization. It campaigned on issues based on traditionalist moral values. Affirmative Action (A) was more associated with liberal - progressive causes regarding racial equality. Term limits (C) were not a central issue for the Moral Majority. A reduction in media censorship (D) would go against their push for more moral standards in media. A nationwide ban on abortion (seen as against the "sanctity of life" from a conservative Christian view) and homosexuality (seen as against traditional sexual morality) aligns with the Moral Majority's stance.
