Answer: his breaking his campaign pledge not to raise taxes

Explanation:

President H.W. Bush promised during his campaign that under him, the U.S. government would not raise taxes in his famous quote, "Read my lips, no new taxes".

Upon getting into power however, he discovered a huge deficit left behind by Ronald Reagan that forced him to raise taxes. This alienated his supporters.

In his defence, he did try to limit taxes by vetoing over 35 bills during his administration.

What name was given to the laws that segregated Texas after the<br> Civil War?
Maslowich

<em>Jim Crow laws.</em>

Explanation:

After the Civil War, segregation in the South was still very prevalent. Jim Crow laws were all over the South and were made to keep African-Americans and white people separate. Some of these laws included things like separate schooling for white and black children, different prisons, separate ticket booths, etc.

Black codes were also a very common thing in the South. These were much more harsher than Jim Crow laws and made it very hard for African-Americans to do anything in everyday life. Many would get arrested for no real reason. Voting laws were also very common as well, so many African-Americans could not vote.

Years and years of protesting these unequal doings, Jim Crow laws, along with other segregative laws and measures, became illegal.
