Senator Thomas C. Hensings Jr. opened a drive to bypass the Senate Judiciary Committee and force a vote on civil rights legislation this year. He proposed an eight point civil rights bill as an amendment to pending legislation, aiming to print and offer it to any bill before the Senate. The plan seeks to extend the Civil Rights Commission, require state records be available for federal inspection, mandate written local voting tests, empower the attorney general to seek court injunctions, and declare segregation unconstitutional. It also calls for federal aid to areas with segregation issues and makes cross state line bombings of churches schools or other buildings a federal crime.
