Answer:

a. women and minorities

Explanation:

The affirmative actions program aimed to assure that employment and hiring on federal projects was perfectly equal and everybody had a fair chanse to be hired, and to make sure that there was no biased based on racial, sex or ethnic background of the candidate for the job. It benefited the most women, and minorities, that prior to this had little to no chance to get federal employments and projects.
