It's is all based on opinion. Some say yes because these laws set heavy penalties, including imprisonment, for anyone attempting to prevent a qualified citizen from voting. They also banned the use of disguies to deprive any person of rights. The laws empowered the army and federal courts to capture and punish Ku Klux Klan members. I say no because, although the Klan's power was soon broken, many similar groups continued to operate.

President Grant helped pass the Enforcement Acts in 1870 and 1871 also known as the Ku Klux Klan Acts. These acts granted the federal government significant power to intervene in the South to protect African Americans from the violence and intimidation by the Ku Klux Klan and other white supremacist groups. The acts allowed the president to suspend the writ of habeas corpus and use federal troops to combat the Klan and other such groups. They also allowed for the prosecution of those responsible for the violence and the punishment of those who denied African Americans their civil rights. In addition the acts allowed the federal government to register African American voters and authorized the use of federal marshals to protect African American voting rights.The Enforcement Acts were a major step towards protecting African Americans from the terror and intimidation of white supremacists in the South. They were seen as a major victory for African Americans and helped to restore their rights and freedoms.

Typically a chief executive has a counsel to his office, and a counsel to him personally. The Attorney General is considered the highest law-enforcement authority of the State, and sometimes legal opinions are sought from this office. The Solicitor General acts to advocate on behalf of the government before the Court.
