Why did the civil right amendment have to be passed

History
1 answer:
dezoksy [38]1 year ago
3 0

The Civil Rights amendment was passed to prohibit discrimination in public accommodations and federally funded programs.

In June 1963, President John F. Kennedy requested an extensive civil rights package from Congress as a result of the widespread opposition to desegregation and the killing of Medgar Evers. Congress enacted the above law in 1964.

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 deemed discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex or national origin as illegal. The provisions of the Act prohibited discrimination in workplace related to hiring, retaining or firing an employee on the basis of sex as well as race. Additionally, it strengthened the implementation of voting rights and school desegregation. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is the holy grail for civil rights law in the United States and it continues to be relevant till date.

Marizza181 [45]
The correct answer is <span>civil solidarity pacts

The notion of marriage in most countries today is still revolving around the idea of a man and a woman. As it is changing and marriage is starting to incorporate people of the LGBT population or anything similar, then the country decided to make the civil solidarity pact enabled which makes you the same as if you're married, but you're not really married in the formal sense. </span>

Why did each state write a new constitution after the war started?
MatroZZZ [7]

Under America’s first governing document, the Articles of Confederation, the national government was weak and states operated like independent countries. At the 1787 convention, delegates devised a plan for a stronger federal government with three branches—executive, legislative and judicial—along with a system of checks and balances to ensure no single branch would have too much power.

Hope this made sense!
