House Rights Bill Faces Delicate Vote In Public Accommodations
Backers of a civil rights bill remain cautiously optimistic as they confront extensive Southern Democratic efforts to weaken key public accommodations protections. The heart of the omnibus bill targets racial discrimination in restaurants, hotels, theaters, and other public spaces. Action on two other anti discrimination provisions in employment and federally aided programs is pending. A large battle over amendments is expected, with at least a dozen proposed to the public accommodations section. Earlier, a 176-125 victory over a proposal to strike a three judge court for voting case speed boosted morale for supporters.
