If one's life honors Martin Luther King, Jr., then it honors Lyndon B. Johnson who signed the Voting Rights Act of 1964.
Pence never lived up to his heroes ideals and standards.

That might be the understatement of the century.(click here) MLK was a fierce advocate for labor unions; Pence is in favor of right-to-work (for less money). And Trump said early in the campaign that wages in America are too high.
MLK fought for voting rights. Pence wants to undermine them with shorter hours at polling places and photo ID laws that disenfranchise poor and minority voters.
MLK was in favor of government-provided full employment and a guaranteed annual income for every American. Pence wants to repeal even the minimum wage and has voted repeatedly in favor of cuts to food stamps, Medicaid and other social programs.
MLK was anti-war. Pence was all for the Iraq War.
MLK is spinning in his grave right now.
