Ronald Reagan came to political prominence in CA with his opposition the Rumford Open Housing Act--"If an individual wants to discriminate against Negroes...it is his right to do so,"--opposed the Voting Rights Act, and called the Civil Rights Act "a bad piece of legislation."
"Reagan Walks out of Meet with Negroes"
Reagan said he agreed with the goals of the Civil Rights Act but said it "was a bad piece of legislation" and that he would not have voted for it had he been in Congress.
