Step-by-step explanation:

1- The Moral Majority is a United States political organization of ultra conservative and Christian fundamentalist orientation, which functions as a lobby. It was founded by Jerry Falwell, a Baptist pastor, in 1979. It is closely linked to evangelical televangelists and supported by the right wing of the Republican Party.

2- Falwell began the institutional activity of Moral Majority in the summer of 1979. Initially it was implemented in the southern states, although it soon spread to the rest, by 1980 the chapters of 18 states had already been founded.

3- At the end of the eighties, the positions of the Moral Majority were widely questioned, and the organization resented. Its critics called it, to ridicule it "neither moral nor majority". For 1988 there were serious financial problems, and finally Falwell dismantled the organization in 1989.
