Civil Rights Act 50th Anniversary Party at Nacho Daddy

June 30, 2014

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - July 2nd is the 50th anniversary of the signing of The Civil Rights Act of 1964. This sweeping piece of legislation changed many American's lives. It outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin allowing access to jobs, housing, education, strengthening voting rights, and prohibiting discrimination in public schools. John F. Kennedy introduced the bill in 1963; but when he was shot, everyone thought the fight for civil rights died with him. No one believed President Johnson would champion this cause and put his political career at risk.

In recognition of the 50th anniversary of the signing of The Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Costa Banderas Chapter of Democrats Abroad Mexico will celebrate at Nacho Daddy on July 2 at 6 pm. While there, US citizens can get voter registration information and assistance from Democrats Abroad volunteers.

Who: Costa Banderas Chapter of Democrats Abroad

What: Food and Drink specials, presentations and information for voter registration abroad

When: 6:00 p.m. Wednesday July 2, 2014

Where: Nacho Daddy, Basilio Badillo #287, South side Puerto Vallarta

How (much): There is no charge to attend this event.

Come celebrate this anniversary, hear more stories of its passage and successes, and share your own. We'll also get off to a good start celebrating Independence Day!

With country committees and local chapters in over 80 countries around the world, Democrats Abroad is the official Democratic Party organization for the millions of Americans living outside the United States.
