Answer:
The Civil Rights Act of 1866 prohibits discrimination in housing based on Race. Option (1) is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Civil Rights Act of 1866, also known as the 14th Amendment Enforcement Act, was enacted by the United States Congress in 1866 to provide citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States, including former slaves.
It prohibited racial discrimination in the making and enforcement of contracts, and it specifically prohibited discrimination in housing.
The act was passed to counteract the Supreme Court's decision in Dred Scott v.
Sandford, which had ruled that African Americans were not citizens of the United States.
The Civil Rights Act of 1866 was a landmark piece of legislation that helped to secure the civil rights of African Americans.
It was challenged by President Andrew Johnson, who vetoed the bill, but Congress overrode his veto and the act became law.
The act was later partially invalidated by the Supreme Court in The Slaughter-House Cases (1873), but it was later revived in Jones v. Mayer (1968).
Thus,
Option (1) is true.
