Explanation:

The conservative coalition was the joining together of the conservatives majority of the Republican Party and the Southern conservatives of the Democratic Party. This coalition was unofficial.

In the words of James T. Patterson, the coalition was agreed to oppose federal bureaucracy, "in denouncing deficit spending, in criticizing industrial labor unions. . . . They sought to "conserve" an America which they believed to have existed before 1933"

The conservative coalition in unison refused to cooperate on civil rights bill. They were so powerful that President Johnson had to have an agreement with one of their members, Everett Dirksen to unite certain members of the coalition to push the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

They also had the power to stop certain unwanted bills from even coming up for a vote.

The coalition were more interested in domestic policies rather than foreign policies.
