The correct answer is D) People were concerned about what groups were influencing politicians through their contributions.

The main force behind these campaign reforms was that people were concerned about what groups were influencing politicians through their contributions.

In 1972, Congress passed the Federal Election Campaign Act. This act requires political candidates to reveal the sources of their campaign contributions. The DISCLOSE Act of 2010 was proposed to adjust the Federal Election Campaign Act to limit sources of campaign contributions and require candidates to share even more information with the public.

Those acts were enacted because the American citizens were worried about the source of that amount of money that was being used for political campaigns. It was very important to know who is behind those contributions in order to avoid the presence of personal agendas or powerful business with agendas that want to promote a specific candidate. Nobody wanted another political machine such as Tammany Hall or another Boss Tweed, that could corrupt the government.

Galina-37 [17]

Feudalism was well established in Europe by the 800s CE but appeared in Japan only in the 1100s as the Heian period drew to a close and the Kamakura Shogunate rose to power.

European feudalism died out with the growth of stronger political states in the 16th century, but Japanese feudalism held on until the Meiji Restoration of 1868.

Hope this helps and have a WONDERFUL day!!
