What was Johnson's domestic reform program?
President Lyndon B. Johnson's domestic reform program is referred to as The Great Society. Johnson's focus was on leveling the playing field - reducing poverty and eradicating racial injustice - guaranteeing equal access to education and health care for all Americans. Medicare, a program primarily purposed to guarantee health care for the elderly, was initiated by Johnson as part of his Great Society plan, and is still in existence today.
