===Dissolution=== By the end of [[Ronald Reagan]]'s presidential administration, Christian Right organizations were generally in a phase of decline. After Reagan's two terms in office, donations were decreasing, because after eight years of Christian Right-supported leadership, the nation was no longer seen as in the same state of supposed moral peril as it was when Reagan first took office.{{sfn|Wilcox|1996|p=38}} The Moral Majority's financial base seriously eroded by the time it became part of the Liberty Federation; its financial difficulties ultimately were a major factor in the decision to disband the organization.{{sfn|Wilcox|1992|p=14}} Falwell offered an optimistic public opinion about the Moral Majority's dissolution. Disbanding the Moral Majority in 1989 in [[Las Vegas Valley|Las Vegas]], Falwell declared, "Our goal has been achieved... The religious right is solidly in place and{{nbsp}}[...] religious conservatives in America are now in for the duration."{{sfn|Allitt|2003|p=198}}
