Walter Franklin George (January 29, 1878 – August 4, 1957) was an American politician from the state of Georgia. He was a long-time Democratic United States Senator and was President pro tempore of the United States Senate from 1955 to 1957.
Born near Preston, Georgia, George practiced law after graduating from Mercer University. He served on the Supreme Court of Georgia from 1917 to 1922, resigning from the bench to successfully run for the Senate. A member of the conservative wing of his party, he opposed the 1932 presidential nomination of Franklin D. Roosevelt and opposed much of Roosevelt's domestic policy. He served as Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee from 1941 to 1946 and generally supported Roosevelt's handling of World War II.
After the war, George emerged as a leading opponent against efforts to end racial segregation. He signed the Southern Manifesto and helped coordinate Southern resistance to the Supreme Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Education. George retired from the Senate in 1957 and died later that same year.
