Presidential Medal of Freedom Recipient President Lyndon Baines Johnson
LYNDON BAINES JOHNSON
Awarded by
President Jimmy Carter
June 9, 1980
Lyndon B. Johnson cared deeply about our country, its citizens, and the condition of their lives. He knew well how to translate concern into action, and action into a national agenda. He did more than any American of his time to break the chains of injustice, illiteracy, poverty and sickness. We are a greater society because President Johnson lived among us and worked for us.
