>On this date, 40 years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was
>assassinated in Memphis. It's a day when many of us will celebrate his
>legacy, the values he espoused, and his vision for a better America.
>Some will talk about the King who challenged America's unlawful war in
>Vietnam, who found common ground with Malcolm X, and who became more
>aggressive in his push for improving America. But the media will
>likely focus a great deal on politicians who give speeches where they
>try to align themselves with his legacy.
>
>We wanted to make sure that today when Senator McCain speaks, you and
>your friends and family know who's talking.
>
>McCain will bring his "Service to America" tour to Memphis on Friday,
>but many people don't know the service he touts includes voting
>against the federal holiday honoring Dr. King. In August 1983 he
>fought the holiday, voting to block a piece of bipartisan legislation
>honoring him that was supported by even conservative Republicans--
>including Dick Cheney--and signed into law by President Reagan.
>
>McCain went on to resist recognizing a King holiday in his home state
>of Arizona. When Arizona's state legislature failed to pass a bill
>recognizing a holiday honoring Dr. King, the governor at the time,
>Bruce Babbit, created the holiday by executive order. Babbit's
>successor, Gov. Evan Mecham rescinded the order as his first act in
>office, doing away with the holiday. John McCain's response? He
>defended the governor, not Dr. King. (After undoing the holiday, the
>same governor went on to publicly support referring to Black people as
>"pickaninnies").
>
>In 1990, seven years after his initial vote, McCain went along with
>establishing a King holiday. On the campaign trail in 2000, facing
>questions about his history on this issue, McCain declared he had
>"evolved."
>
>Looking at the rest of McCain's public record, even recently, it's
>hard to see much evidence of an "evolution". In fact, McCain has
>consistently opposed a civil rights agenda:
>
>
>He voted an amazing FOUR times against the Civil Rights Act of 1990--a
>bill designed to make it easier for employees to prove job
>discrimination and imposing harsher penalties on bosses who
>discriminated.
>In 2004 he opposed affirmative action in college admissions--a key
>component of the 1964 Civil Rights Act that is among King's key
>legislative victories.
>He has voted at least 8 times against raising the minimum wage.
>And as recently as last month, he argued against federal intervention
>to help Americans, disproportionately Black Americans, who have faced
>foreclosure during the housing crisis.
>If John McCain has evolved, he hasn't evolved much. Instead, we see a
>consistent and troubling pattern. From campaigning against Dr. King's
>holiday to undermining important civil rights laws, John McCain has
>not stood side by side with King's vision, he has stood in its way.
>
>Today, we hope that everyone will take a moment to pause and remember
>Dr. King's legacy, recognizing his contributions of words, deeds and
>ultimately his life. And we hope that all can see past political
>posturing (regardless of who it comes from) and embrace the bold,
>challenging vision that King actually projected. We believe that in
>doing so, we honor both his legacy and his sacrifice.
