On 5th of January 1933, former President of the United States, John Calvin Coolidge, passed away at his home in Northampton, Massachusetts at the age of sixty. Calvin Coolidge's legacy was marked by his dedication to both fiscal and moral responsibility in government; while in office, Coolidge fought hard to reign in government spending and debt, and to protect the civil rights of all Americans. During his presidency, he signed the Revenue Act of 1926 that helped reduce the national debt, and he signed the Indian Citizenship Act in 1924, granting citizenship and civil rights to members of Native American tribes. Coolidge served as the Governor of Massachusetts from 1919 to 1920, and his political career began much earlier when he served as the Vice President to President Warren Harding from 1921 to 1923, before assuming office as the 30th president of the United States upon Harding's death in 1923. He was reelected as president in 1924, setting a record for the largest electoral college majority up until that point. A native of Plymouth Notch, Vermont, Coolidge was a Republican leader of one of the greatest periods of economic prosperity in United States history. He is remembered for his contribution to social and economic stability in the early 20th century. His passing was mourned widely across the country and around the world. He is survived by his widow, Grace Coolidge, and their two children, John and Calvin Jr.
