With much in common, the two men formed a friendship that began with an all-night discussion of theology. Fauntroy joined the <a href="/wiki/Southern_Christian_Leadership_Conference" title="Southern Christian Leadership Conference">Southern Christian Leadership Conference</a> (SCLC), and upon his return to Washington, D.C., became an influential lobbyist for civil rights in Congress. Fauntroy also helped to coordinate the 1963 <a href="/wiki/March_on_Washington_for_Jobs_and_Freedom" title="March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom">March on Washington</a> at which King gave his famous "<a href="/wiki/I_Have_a_Dream" title="I Have a Dream">I Have a Dream</a>" speech.

After the speech, King jumped up and declared, "Walter, can you believe that white man not only stepped up to the plate, he hit it over the fence!" </p><p>After completing his education, Fauntroy became pastor of the New Bethel Baptist Church. He returned home with an unorthodox view of Christian service that his parishioners immediately embraced. Believing that religion was something more than a Sunday morning ritual, Fauntroy took part in civil rights demonstrations, sit-ins, and marches – both in Washington, D.C., and elsewhere. </p><p>As director of the Washington Bureau of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, Fauntroy served as D.C. Coordinator of the historic <a href="/wiki/March_on_Washington_for_Jobs_and_Freedom" title="March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom">March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom</a> in 1963, and a coordinator for the 1965 <a href="/wiki/Selma_to_Montgomery_marches" title="Selma to Montgomery marches">Selma to Montgomery marches</a> and the 1966 <a href="/wiki/March_Against_Fear" title="March Against Fear">March Against Fear</a>.

This organization, which Fauntroy headed until 1971, used federal grants to improve inner city neighborhoods using black architects, city planners, and construction engineers to design and build homes, schools, stores, and other projects in urban Washington. At one time the budget for MICCO was well over $30 million, a community planning and neighborhood development group in Washington, D.C., that established and began to implement the Shaw Urban Renewal Project. </p><p>Fauntroy played a key role after the <a href="/wiki/Assassination_of_Martin_Luther_King_Jr." title="Assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.">assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.</a>, meeting both with President Johnson and with activist <a href="/wiki/Stokely_Carmichael" title="Stokely Carmichael">Stokely Carmichael</a> during the <a href="/wiki/King_assassination_riots" title="King assassination riots">immediate aftermath</a>.

In 1967, he was named vice-chairperson of the Washington City Council, a nine-member body appointed directly by the president of the United States. Fauntroy sat on the city council for two years, resigning when his commitments as director of MICCO began to take all of his time. </p><p>Belying his previous ecumenicism, Fauntroy asked the United States Supreme Court to stop <a href="/wiki/Same-sex_marriage" title="Same-sex marriage">same-sex marriage</a> from taking place in the District of Columbia in March 2010, pending a "vote by the people". </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Congressional_career">Congressional career</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Walter_Fauntroy&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Congressional career"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The District of Columbia had no formal representation in Congress before 1970. That year, President Nixon signed the <a href="/wiki/District_of_Columbia_Delegate_Act" class="mw-redirect" title="District of Columbia Delegate Act">District of Columbia Delegate Act</a> that gave the District one non-voting delegate to Congress.

Fauntroy therefore became influential with the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) as a liberal with an agenda that included the concerns of inner city residents, the poor, and minorities. Fauntroy's special quest was for home rule – and eventually statehood – for the District of Columbia. Using his considerable political clout, he oversaw legislation that provided for direct election of a mayor and a city council in Washington by 1973. Fauntroy briefly considered running for mayor of Washington himself but instead decided to stay in Congress. He was returned to his office five times over the ensuing years, sometimes with as much as 85 percent of the vote. </p><p>In Congress, he was a founding member of the <a href="/wiki/Congressional_Black_Caucus" title="Congressional Black Caucus">Congressional Black Caucus</a>. He chaired the Caucus in 1981 and led the organization in presenting, for the first time, a budget to be debated by the House. The "Constructive Alternative Budget" was debated on the House floor for two days. He was a member of the House Banking, Finance and Urban Affairs Committee, Congressman Fauntroy chaired for six years the Subcommittee on Domestic Monetary Policy and for four years chaired the Subcommittee on International Development, Finance, Trade and Monetary Policy. He also chaired, for fifteen years, the Bipartisan/Bicameral Task Force on Haiti. </p><p>Fauntroy authored the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Black_Leadership_Family_Plan_For_the_Unity,_Survival_and_Progress_of_Black_People&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Black Leadership Family Plan For the Unity, Survival and Progress of Black People (page does not exist)">Black Leadership Family Plan For the Unity, Survival and Progress of Black People</a> in 1982.
