    Executive Summary Civil rights problems remain entrenched in American society, the stubborn result of unequal treatment over time. Discrimination in housing, employment, and the voting booth, unequal educational opportunity, and other problems still stand between some Americans and true equality. Presidential leadership is necessary to break down obstacles and realize the promise of civil rights. The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights (Commission) examined the George W. Bush administration’s commitment to that end. What follows are the results of the Commission’s examination, expressed in terms of: (1) whether civil rights enforcement is a presidential priority; (2) federal efforts to eradicate entrenched discrimination; (3) expanding and protecting rights for disadvantaged groups; and (4) promoting access to federal programs and services for traditionally underserved populations. This report finds that President Bush has neither exhibited leadership on pressing civil rights issues, nor taken actions that matched his words. The report reaches this conclusion after analyzing and summarizing numerous documents, including historical literature, reports, scholarly articles, presidential and administration statements, executive orders, policy briefs, documents of Cabinet-level agencies, federal budgets and other data

    Letter from Leadership Conference on Civil Rights in Washington D.C. to Alton Lennon about opposition to the anti-riot bill

    Letter from Leadership Conference on Civil Rights in Washington D.C. to Alton Lennon about opposition to the anti-riot bill (1967/07/12). They state that the bill is mischievous and will not aid in the problem of urban riots. They write that the root causes of riots include the hopelessness and frustration felt by millions of the urban poor �because of their hovel existences, their inability to get jobs or the education they need to advance themselves�, and that it is upsetting to see Congress ready to rush such punitive measure through when it is disposed to trim, temporize, and block other legislation that would help relieve urban tensions. It goes on to write that the anti-riot bill is based on the notion that all one needs to do to curb riots is to round up the ring leaders, but what needs to be done is to pass the bill like the Civil Rights Act of 1967. They state that such act is adequate appropriations for rent supplements and model cities, effective education programs and legislation to strengthen the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The letter continues that it is the inability of Congress to act effectively in such areas that have supplied the tinder for riots. In closing, they write that H.R. 421 is ill-considered and vaguely drawn that it could restrict lawful demonstrations against injustice by civil rights workers and by union officers, organizers, and representatives. Once again, they urge Lennon to vote against the bill
