Answer:

C. The States lost power and the Federal Government gained power.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 14th Amendment authorized the federal government to punish states that violated their citizens’ right to vote by proportionally reducing the states’ representation in Congress, and mandated that anyone who “engaged in insurrection” against the United States could not hold civil, military or elected office (without the approval of two-thirds of the House and Senate).
