It also brought in around a billion in extra federal aid funding to schools. The act created title 1 funding for schools with more than 35% of the enrolled students in low income households.

 This program would ensure education for those who would usually have underfunded schools due to lower income neighborhoods and student enrollment. By ensuring educational standards for everyone the nation benefits by having a more educated Populace.]]> 2021-04-27 17:07:08 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465426687 22jphillips4 https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465428222 Joseph Califano was a special assistant to President Johnson in 1965.

The Civil Rights act of 1964 prohibited the discrimination based on race, color, religion or national origin, and guaranteed the federal government new powers to enforce the law.  The Voting rights act of 1965 prohibited literacy tests or other discriminatory practices for voting. The Civil Rights act of 1968 made it unlawful to deny housing (ownership and rentals) on the basis of race. It also established the Fair Housing Commission to investigate claims of housing discrimination.

Sowell´s success of the Great Society is when the murder rate had also been going down, for decades, and in 1960 was just under half of what it had been in 1934. The poverty rate among black families fell from 87 percent in 1940 to 47 percent. These statements from Sowell helps show the success of the Great Society and how things started to change.]]> 2021-04-27 17:07:57 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465431018 22jngo https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465433740 1) The issue that was being addressed were how the basic principle of man were to be based off of merit rather than race because before this act, immigration were more directed towards Southern and Eastern Europe, which meant that Asian and African Immigration were being restricted. The Immigration Act of 1965 addressed this issue through Kennedy's administration ending the quota system based off of nationality. 
2) The program helped create a Great Society because it created more opportunities to those in need, especially towards people of Asian, African, and Latin American descent leading to a step towards equality between all races. The program's legacy is through the pie charts in which the growth and immigration from more diverse countries is evident. ]]> 2021-04-27 17:08:25 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465433740 https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465435630 The Problem at hand was that not all students were being given education and it hindered their learning at a younger state. This program addressed it by This act providing more than $1 billion of federal aid to public schools for textbooks and other materials. In addition they also had provisions that provided additional funding to low-income schools. 

This Program helped create a great society because it was able to give all students no matter their background a chance to learn and get the necessities as a child/student. This Programs legacy was very well known because it was able to change the education for students in need.]]> 2021-04-27 17:08:45 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465435630 https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465440285 1) The issue that was being addressed was that the poor, uneducated, jobless or anyone that fall into that category are able to be apart of these various programs that would further benefit them such as Head Start and Jobs Corps. The EOA's main purpose was to simply reduce the numbers of these groups. An example of the EOA would be the Food Stamp Act, as it had been able to assist millions of Americans. ]]> 2021-04-27 17:09:32 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465440285 https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465455774 Noah Bryan, Tiffany Tran, and Landen Tomanek]]> 2021-04-27 17:12:23 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465455774 22efroelich https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465459880 1) The issue being addressed is that social security did not provide many medical benefits. So the Social Security Act of 1965 authorized a program known as medicare that provided a low-cost health insurance for almost all Americans aged 65 or older. As a social insurance program, Medicare functions to spread the financial responsibility for illness across society to protect everyone. Johnson's healthcare policies also created medicaid which extended healthcare benefits to poor Americans, including those who receive welfare.]]> 2021-04-27 17:13:08 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465459880 https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465465170 2.) These Acts helped to create a great society by allowing minorities, to vote which threw in a greater and more accurate opinion, when it comes to elections. Even though housing, had no discrimination and any race could get any house they wanted anywhere, they still didn't fix the income for the minorities, so they weren't able to afford the nice houses that the act says they can have. These acts helped to relieve a lot of discrimination, but without it discrimination and rights 100% equal there will always minorities, and whites will still be at the top. ]]> 2021-04-27 17:14:05 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465465170 https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465466995 Califano's success of the great society programs are helping bring down poverty in areas. We see this in how the Poverty line have dropped from 22.2 percent to 12.6 percent. One other thing that the programs are doing is giving out school breakfast daily to nearly 100 million schoolchildren, and serving medicaid to more than 200 million Americans. ]]> 2021-04-27 17:14:24 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465466995 https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465470042 2021-04-27 17:14:57 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465470042 https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465476075 2) This program would help create a great society because its main goal was to help the less privileged kids, and to give them the same opportunities as everybody else. This Acts legacy focused on getting kids and youthful teens food, job opportunities and schooling, for those who were unable to obtain them on there own due to their financial situation. ]]> 2021-04-27 17:16:00 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465476075 22ahall5 https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465489315 2021-04-27 17:18:27 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465489315 22efroelich https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465501470 2) This program would help create a great society because it allows the elderly and the poor to still receive medical benefits. This would keep the society healthy and safe. This program has a legacy of positivity and hope because it provides healthcare and medical benefits for those in need. In the world today it continues to provide little to no cost health insurance to the elderly and the poor. ]]> 2021-04-27 17:20:41 UTC https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465501470 https://padlet.com/pdelafuente2/ldfn8og5rc3bzds9/wish/1465506846 The issue that was being addressed was that urban cities began to deteriorate as middle-class suburban communities began to grow. As a part of the Great Society programs and the “war on poverty,”  Johnson signed the Department of Housing and Urban Development Act in 1965. This act created a cabinet department in the federal government that would execute and oversee the development of public housing in urban areas.
