(1) Suicide is the leading cause of gun related 
deaths in America. More than 60 percent of deaths 
by guns in the country are the result of individuals 
using these weapons as a means to commit suicide. 
Some of these deaths might have been prevented if 
there were adequate background checks. 
(2) Victims of domestic abuse are more likely to 
become victims of homicide when a gun is present. 
Further, individuals who suffer from mental illnesses 
are more likely to be victims rather than perpetra-
tors of violence. 
(3) Approximately 1 in 4 American adults have 
a mental illness and nearly half of all adults in 
America will develop at least one mental illness dur-
ing their lifetime. 
(4) Less than half of children and adults with 
diagnosable mental health problems receive the

One Hundred Fourteenth Congress 
of the 
United States of America 
AT THE FIRST SESSION 
Begun and held at the City of Washington on Tuesday, 
the sixth day of January, two thousand and fifteen 
An Act 
To award a Congressional Gold Medal to the Foot Soldiers who participated in 
Bloody Sunday, Turnaround Tuesday, or the final Selma to Montgomery Voting 
Rights March in March of 1965, which served as a catalyst for the Voting Rights 
Act of 1965. 
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of 
the United States of America in Congress assembled, 
SECTION 1. FINDINGS. 
The Congress finds the following: 
(1) March 7, 2015, will mark 50 years since the brave 
Foot Soldiers of the Voting Rights Movement first attempted 
to march from Selma to Montgomery on ‘‘Bloody Sunday’’ in 
protest against the denial of their right to vote, and were 
brutally assaulted by Alabama state troopers. 
(2) Beginning in 1964, members of the Student Nonviolent 
Coordinating Committee attempted to register African-Ameri-
cans to vote throughout the state of Alabama. 
(3) These efforts were designed to ensure that every Amer-
ican citizen would be able to exercise their constitutional right 
to vote and have their voices heard. 
(4) By December of 1964, many of these efforts remained 
unsuccessful. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., working with leaders 
from the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and the 
Southern Christian Leadership Conference, began to organize 
protests throughout Alabama. 
(5) On March 7, 1965, over 500 voting rights marchers 
known as ‘‘Foot Soldiers’’ gathered on the Edmund Pettus 
Bridge in Selma, Alabama in peaceful protest of the denial 
of their most sacred and constitutionally protected right—the 
right to vote. 
(6) Led by John Lewis of the Student Nonviolent Coordi-
nating Committee and Rev. Hosea Williams of the Southern 
Christian Leadership Conference, these Foot Soldiers began 
the march towards the Alabama State Capitol in Montgomery, 
Alabama. 
(7) As the Foot Soldiers crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge, 
they were confronted by a wall of Alabama state troopers 
who brutally attacked and beat them. 
(8) Americans across the country witnessed this tragic turn 
of events as news stations broadcasted the brutality on a day 
that would be later known as ‘‘Bloody Sunday’’. 
(9) Two days later on Tuesday, March 9, 1965, nearly 
2,500 Foot Soldiers led by Dr. Martin Luther King risked 
their lives once more and attempted a second peaceful march

later known as ‘‘Turnaround Tuesday.’’ 
(10) Fearing for the safety of these Foot Sol-
diers who received no protection from federal or 
state authorities during this second march, Dr. King 
led the marchers to the base of the Edmund Pettus 
Bridge and stopped. Dr. King kneeled and offered a 
prayer of solidarity and walked back to the church.

(11) President Lyndon B. Johnson, inspired by 
the bravery and determination of these Foot Soldiers 
and the atrocities they endured, announced his plan 
for a voting rights bill aimed at securing the pre-
cious right to vote for all citizens during an address 
to Congress on March 15, 1965. 
(12) On March 17, 1965, one week after 
‘‘Turnaround Tuesday’’, U.S. District Judge Frank 
M. Johnson ruled the Foot Soldiers had a First 
Amendment right to petition the government 
through peaceful protest, and ordered federal agents 
to provide full protection to the Foot Soldiers during 
the Selma to Montgomery Voting Rights March. 
(13) Judge Johnson’s decision overturned Ala-
bama Governor George Wallace’s prohibition on the 
protest due to public safety concerns. 
(14) On March 21, 1965, under the court 
order, the U.S. Army, the federalized Alabama Na-
tional Guard, and countless federal agents and mar-
shals escorted nearly 8,000 Foot Soldiers from the 
start of their heroic journey in Selma, Alabama to 
their safe arrival on the steps of the Alabama State 
Capitol Building on March 25, 1965.

tional attention to the struggle for equal voting 
rights, and served as the catalyst for Congress to 
pass the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which President 
Johnson signed into law on August 6, 1965. 
(16) To commemorate the 50th anniversary of 
the Voting Rights Movement and the passage of the 
Voting Rights Act of 1965, it is befitting that Con-
gress bestow the highest civilian honor, the Congres-
sional Gold Medal, in 2015, to the Foot Soldiers 
who participated in Bloody Sunday, Turnaround

Rights March during March of 1965, which served
