The primary goals of the Moral Majority movement were a focus on traditional values and opposition to feminism. The movement aimed to promote conservative social policies and resist changes that they believed undermined traditional family structures and roles.
Moral Majority: By 1973, 30 states had ratified the ERA. This amendment died without ever getting the necessary votes. One reason for this is due to the efforts of Phyllis Schlafly, a conservative activist who fought to stop ratification of the amendment. She claimed to stand up for the dignity of the homemaker and the special privileges of being a woman. The ERA has yet to be ratified to this day.
