| | In a meeting with King, Kennedy initially expressed concern about the march and its effect on the pending civil rights bill. | | | On 11 June 1963, he directly addressed national concerns over civil rights, describing it as a "moral issue." Kennedy followed his speech by introducing to Congress a comprehensive civil rights bill that primarily focused on the desegregation of schools, restaurants, and hotels. | | | As Kennedy's proposed legislation stalled in Congress, King and other civil rights leaders pressured the president for action and proceeded with plans for the March on Washington, scheduled for late August. |
