Topeka Board of Education Case and commanding the 101st Airborne Division into Little Rock to enforce his order. He used his executive power to insure Civil Rights.
While chasing the Nazis into Berlin in World War II, Eisenhower saw how a good highway system made military maneuvering easier. Soon after becoming president in 1953, President Eisenhower authorized the first funding of the interstate system. The Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1954 set aside $175 million for the project. However, even more money was needed for the system that Eisenhower envisioned, and he continued to press for funds. Two years later, the expanded Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956 authorized a budget of $25 billion. During Dwight D. Eisenhower's first three years in office, he presented no civil rights bills to Congress. Eisenhower believed that strongly held political opinions such as a firm belief in racial segregation could not easily be changed, even by U.S. Government legislation. Eisenhower told a news conference in 1954: "I believe there are certain things that are not best handled by punitive or compulsory Federal law." Although he declined to ask Congress for a civil rights bill in his first years in office, President Eisenhower was quietly determined to eliminate racial discrimination in those areas where the president had clear-cut authority and there was no question of overriding states' rights. Eisenhower therefore issued executive orders ending any segregationist practices that remained in the District of Columbia, in the military, and in the U.S. Government bureaucracy. He was the first president to appoint a black, Frederic Morrow, to an executive position on the White House staff. Eisenhower had policy of minimizing legislative requests and maximizing executive action. On September 9, 1957, Ike signed the Civil Rights Bill, even though the bill primarily protected voting rights of African Americans it was the first of its kind passed by Congress since post Civil-War.
