JFK vote on the 1957 Civil Rights Act
Hi RobSmith, you wrote in the page that JFK voted against the 1957 Civil Rights Act, though in your cited reference here, it says that he had voted in favor of the legislation. Is there something I'm perhaps missing? Thanks! —LiberaltearsMay Dataclarifier be well! 12:47, 11 July 2020 (EDT)
- I'll look into it. It likely means he voted against cloture. RobSTrump 2Q2Q 12:57, 11 July 2020 (EDT)
- Hmm, interesting. I think I remember reading one of Dinesh D'Souza's books where he mentions JFK voting against one of the major civil rights legislation as a senator, though I don't recall the exact details. —LiberaltearsMay Dataclarifier be well! 13:03, 11 July 2020 (EDT)
- It's complicated. Ike's AG introduced the bill; Johnson and Russell watered it down by restricting what the AG could do to enforce the bill. Kennedy voted for the restriction with segregationiosts. I think I can clarify by adding a note to a new citation. RobSTrump 2Q2Q 13:19, 11 July 2020 (EDT)
