Presidential Medal of Freedom Recipient John Macy
JOHN MACY
Awarded by
President Lyndon B. Johnson
January 20, 1969
John Macy recruited more talent of proven ability into government service than any other man of our time. In demanding only the best--and in seeking it out--he set a standard of excellence that will serve as a benchmark for many years to come. Our governments is stronger today from top to bottom because of his efforts. The government is fairer, too, because John Macy insisted that Equal Employment Opportunity meant what it says. He insisted only on ability and character, without regard to religion or race or color or section.
