"Johnson helped the United States transition after Kennedy’s death by honoring his predecessor’s policies."

He pledged to "carry on" Kennedy's agenda, pushed through initiatives Kennedy had started (for example the tax cut and support for the space program) and used the momentum to pass major legislation like the Civil Rights Act and other Great Society programs.
