Members of the Democratic Party have also been divided over such issues as broadening police powers and spending on crime prevention versus repression, again with conservative Southern Democrats taking a harder line than other elected members of the party by favoring an expansion of search and seizure laws and a focus on repressing crime.

Democratic city majors as well as liberal, Northern Democrats in the House held fast to the administration's plan, while state governors and Southern Democrats generally opposed it, favoring the Republicans' alternative instead.
