My boyfriend went to the doctor for something and won't tell me what it was because he says it's too embarrassing, so I let it go. I noticed a new bottle of pills on his dresser and the label on it was Avkare.
The Voting Rights Act of 1965 is a landmark piece of federal legislation in the United States that prohibits racial discrimination in voting.he legislation that Johnson referred to was the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which was introduced in Congress two days later while civil rights leaders, now under the protection of federal troops, led a march of 25,000 people from Selma to Montgomery.
Under strong pressure from Johnson and the civil rights movement, the Senate passed the Voting Rights Act by a 77-19 vote on May 26, 1965. The House passed it 333-85 on July 9. Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act into law on Aug. 6 with King and other civil rights leaders in attendance. The law prohibited the use of literacy tests, provided federal oversight of voter registration in areas where large numbers of nonwhites had not registered to vote and authorized the U.S. attorney general to investigate the use of discriminatory poll taxes in state and local elections.
