Political party
President Johnson used his political skills to pressure Congress to pass the act.
He can use his political party to manuever a bill through the U.S. Congress. He can use the public to generate grass-roots support and contact the members of Congress by mail or phone or internet, telling them how to vote. He can use patronage and pressure with whips (leadership positions) and leaders on certain members to vote a certain way.
No congress votes on that issue but the states can pressure congress into voting either way.
Besides popular vote for local, state and federal representatives (municipal presidents, governors, congress and president), many of them belong to several NGOs and unions that act as political pressure groups.
In what ways are courts, judges, and justices shielded from politics and political pressure
US Supreme Court Justices should not be influenced by Political pressure, popular opinion, or their own biases. They should only compare the case in the light of the US Constitution.
