The War on Poverty was the name given to legislation introduced by President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964. The legislation intended to deal with the problem of poverty across the country. This legislation was also influenced by the previous "New Deal" introduced by President Roosevelt. The legislation influenced how welfare was seen during the following decades, until the presidency of Bill Clinton, when he introduced the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act of 1996, reducing federal aid to impoverished people.

Why do you think general order 143 and the emancipation proclamation were important during the civil war
klasskru [66]
<span>The Emancipation Proclamation issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863 that abolished slavery in all states including those in the Confederacy.  It is still an important document today because it finally removed the practice of slavery in America.  Never again would people be bought or sold like property and it also defined that all people were equal and that no one had the right to enslave another.  General Order 143 that enabled slaves and free blacks to enlist in the Union Army during the Civil War. The color regiments performed well and President praised these men for their sacrifice in winning the war.  It is still relevant today , we judge not by their color but how well they perform and how committed they are to the cause at hand.</span>
