The correct answer to this open question is the following.
President Reagan, opposing busing and affirmative action programs, launched an assault on the Voting Rights Commission and the Civil Rights Restoration Act.
However, the US Congress decided to extend the Voting Rights Act, something that minorities celebrated. This decision was followed by another important decision in 1988, the passing of the Civil Rights Restoration Act. Reagan was a conservative president and was supported by conservative groups that demanded the cut of taxes and the reduction of assistance programs. The conservative groups influenced Reagan on diminish prerogatives of minority groups such as homosexuals and feminists.
I would quote Carrie Nation because she was an important member of the temperance movement, a movement that temporarily caused the banning of alcohol in the U.S.
