Grover Cleveland did not directly support the Plessy v. Ferguson decision, as the Supreme Court ruling came in 1896 after his presidency, which ended in 1897. However, during his time in office, he generally favored a hands-off approach to civil rights issues, often prioritizing political stability over social reform. Cleveland's administration did not challenge the segregationist policies that would later be upheld by the Plessy decision.
