Alabama Legislature backs Wallace desegregation defiance plan
The Alabama Legislature endorsed George C. Wallace’s civil disobedience proposal urging parents to enroll children in preferred schools and stay there peacefully. The move, written by Wallace and campaign aides, signals a political opening shot as Wallace contemplates a gubernatorial bid. Brewer avoided opposing the plan, stressing a private citizen stance while others within his administration criticized the approach. The resolution passed 23-11 in the Senate and 85-5 in the House, supporting a freedom of choice system that federal orders have largely overridden.
