No. He died before he could get it done. LBJ had to do it.
President John F. Kennedy was responsible for initiating early civil rights reforms during the 1960s. His administration took significant steps to address racial inequality, including proposing civil rights legislation and supporting the desegregation of schools and public facilities. Kennedy's efforts laid the groundwork for the more comprehensive Civil Rights Act of 1964, which was passed after his assassination.
An unmarried father cannot "choose" to not pay child support. The laws in every state require that a father pay for the support of his child. The mother must bring an action to the appropriate court so that a child support order can be established. Visitation rights are separate and a father can have visitation rights established by the court. Visitation rights are not dependent on paying child support.
President Kennedy pushed for the Civil Rights Act in Congress, and promised federal funding for school desegregation.
He acted cautiously until pushed by civil rights groups. (apex)
President John F. Kennedy and his administration finally began to support the civil rights movement after the Birmingham Campaign of 1963. He signed the Civil Rights Act in response to the highly publicized and violent confrontations of the campaign.
The president during the Civil Rights Movement was John F Kennedy :)
During his early months in office, Kennedy moved slowly on civil rights issues. He did not want to lose the support of southern members of Congress. Later in his term, Kennedy became a much stronger supporter of civil rights. He wanted American society to put into practice the principles of freedom that U.S. leaders preached to the world. He decided it was time for the government to take action in support of civil rights.
The civil rights movement led by the Freedom Riders and Martin Luther King, JR.
President Andrew Johnson showed he did not support greater rights for African Americans in the south by vetoing the freedman's bureau and the civil rights act of 1868. President Johnson came into office after President Abraham Lincoln's assassination.
According to my U.S. history book, President Kennedy initially approached civil rights policies cautiously.
