The answer to the question is 'contras,' which refers to the right-wing forces that the Boland Amendments aimed to restrict in their fight against the Sandinista government of Nicaragua. The amendments were a reaction to concerns about U.S. involvement in Nicaragua's civil war. Ultimately, the U.S. involvement with the contras led to significant political controversy during the Reagan administration.
