Although there are no options included, we can say the following.

Identify the verb that shows that President Johnson was against the Civil Rights Act of 1866. (hint- think voting)

The correct answer is "veto." United States President Johnson vetoed the Civil Rights Act of 1866. One of the many powers of the President of the United States is his veto power. And President Andrew Johnson used it to veto the Civil Rights Act pf 1866. This act protected US citizens under the law. However, President Johnson considered that this act did not completely address the challenges of Reconstruction and the necessities of African Americans.
