Explanation:

Identify the historical policy action

President Richard Nixon expanded federal affirmative action protections and non-discrimination policies during his administration. Specifically, Executive Order 11478, issued in 1969, prohibited discrimination in the federal government based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, handicap, or age.

Match policy expansion to the options

The expansion of these protections specifically addressed job discrimination against older adults (age discrimination) and disabled individuals. Under Nixon's administration, the expansion of affirmative action concepts and federal employment policy explicitly integrated protections for older adults.
